Yes, rangeroger has a great idea, however, as Amos has pointed out, there is a logistical problem. Perhaps there is a brilliant Mudcatter out there who could work out a solution to this.

Alas, he is not me.

Nonetheless, the original suggestion in this thread, drastic as it sounds, appears to be the only working solution, unless Spikepole's dream of snow becomes a reality.

But it seems that my hope of becoming Time Magazine's "Man of the Year" is fading. What a lousy way to begin 2002!

Anybody know any good folk songs that fit this occasion?
