I used to have that kind of relationship with the local Saab master tech. He'd let me use his car for the day when he was fixing mine, and I always filled his tank & put a case of his preferred beer on the passenger seat for when he got it back. Worked out well for both of us. He's no longer in the area, though. >> It's supposed to be _very_ cold >> this weekend (below zero farenheit) so I don't know if I'll get it >> out this weekend, but I'm close. > > We have had temperature and wind speed records here in the southern parts > of Sweden, up to +11ƒC (+52ƒF), and absolutely no snow.

I was in your part of the world back in November of 1993, and it was warm but snowy, and people kept apologizing for the weather (which I found odd). > Nice warm January day in Sweden as seen by my private weather station: > > < http://www.nospam.se/weather/diagram.shtml?pick=day=20050110 > Is that MRTG you're using for your graphs?

That's unfortunate, but if you heat your house with wood now is a good time to drive around with a chainsaw and a trailer, helping little old ladies with trees fallen in their yards. We had an ice storm that I did that after, and burned that firewood for 3 or 4 years. Dave
