26 Nov 07 - 08:58 AM (#2202394) Subject: RE: BS: Rain/Anti rain issue From: Rapparee Anti-rain does indeed fall upwards. You can experience it in Australia, where everything falls upwards and people walk around on their hands. |

Just a little boy standing in the rain The gentle rain that falls for years And the grass is gone and the boy disappears And the rain keeps falling like helpless tears And what have they done to the rain? Just a little breeze out of the sky The leaves nod their heads as the breeze blows by Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye And what have they done to the rain?

27 Nov 07 - 05:32 AM (#2203001) Subject: RE: BS: Rain/Anti rain issue From: gnu I am absolutely LOVING the heavy rain here at the moment. About 30mm overall and going up to 12C today. On Novemebr 27, it could just as easily be -12C and 300mm of snow, driftted up between the houses, of course. Definitely FOR rain. |

27 Nov 07 - 09:06 AM (#2203109) Subject: RE: BS: Rain/Anti rain issue From: Bee I could do without the damn wind, gnu, rain or snow. I am so tired of power outages that last for days out here. NS Power has sucked mightily since they privatized it. If it is windy, I fully expect to be in the dark and flushing with a bucket, and I hate it. We have 'Juan Anxiety Syndome' out here, where we went for up to two weeks with no electricity. We made out all right, with wood and propane and a lake ten metres away, but a lot of people, seniors in particular, are totally dependent on power for heat, cooking and water. |

In Ireland they just say, "The day's a bit fresh." I'm with littlehawk on this one. I'd like it alot better if it only rained at night. Can someone please arrange this? All in all, I like the rain because when the sun comes out its soooooo green it sparkles and the air is so clean and fresh. |

28 Nov 07 - 12:25 PM (#2203964) Subject: RE: BS: Rain/Anti rain issue From: KB in Iowa I like rain. I enjoy sitting with a cup of tea watching the birds in the rain. The various splashes in the puddles can be mesmerizing. Colors are much richer during and after a rain. I get annoyed at TV weatherfolks who seem to assume that it can only be nice when it is 80 (27c) and sunny. I also like a good blizzard as long as I don't have to go anywhere. Don't get me wrong, 80 and sunny is good, too, but I like a variety. |
