It's been very cold out here.. mid-30s. There was snow in Marin, which
caused a 30-car pile up and a couple of deaths. It's a dangerous part of the
highway anyway, but people out here are not used to nor were they expecting
ice.

Love this weather! We sailed (albeit light winds) yesterday...went
downriver to Fairfield Harbor and scouted up Doug...he was on his way out
on a friend's boat...we just toodled around the Neuse all afternoon,
smearing on the sunscreen (in March!) and having a grand time. Went
fishing this morning but didn't catch anything...guy on our dock caught a
huge ell yesterday...foot and half long and a sickly green/yellow
color...another guy said that they are nasty critters and if you try to
unhook them they'll take your finger off...a seagull stole my bait when I
turned my back and then stood on a piling laughing at me...

My brother was telling me about that. Your weather seems antithetical to
ours, lately. We've had temps in the mid-60s, sun, and the flowers are
blooming. The tables are turned temporarily, it would seem.

the snow didn't cause the accident, bad driving did.

Jon,

I think what Scotty is trying to say is; "Avoid those conditions that
you can't drive in and LEARN to drive in those conditions you CAN"T
AVOID!"

How does one avoid those conditions if you're unaware that a condition
exists until you're in the midde of it?

I have no idea what point you're trying to make. I said, "people out here
are not used to nor were they expeicting ice."

You wrote, ''There was snow in Marin, which caused a 30-car
pile up''

And I wrote, ''the snow didn't cause the accident''

What part do you knot understand?
