>>>I live near Edmonton (way up north where it's supposed to be cooler) Two days in a row it's +33C here. It's really humid too. The last time it was like this we had an F5 tornado. Someone tell Al Gore to turn down the furnace.

>>Before this warming thing, all we had for weather was ten months of winter and two months of bad sledding. For Floridians, Sledding is what is done on snow. It involves a sled with runners which slide on the snow surface thus carrying the sled rider. Generally, sledding is done on a hill. During the two bad months, we wait for snow then, we sled.

>'K. I get it (I think). You just threw a bunch of foreign concepts. I have to ask as we don't have anything similar around here. What's snow? What's a hill?

I remember a place called “Sand Hill” which I think was in western or central Florida in 1961. It was man made and 240 feet high. It was built as a tourist attraction. I do not recall anything that resembled a hill besides that example. My usual view from Orlando was pine trees less than 30 feet tall, and Spanish Moss. Of course there was the occasional Palm Tree to be seen. After 45 years of rain Sand Hill may no longer exist. :)
