Cool, now if I could only ship some of the 8 foot wall of snow I have sitting around my wash to Vancouver we would all be happy campers. Record breaking snow for February in Pittsburgh. Haven't washed a car in a week!

Vancouver: Snowless

Yes, the lack of snow is a slight issue... But not if you talk to organizers... They have been using a FLEET of heavy lift helicopters for a couple of weeks now to move snow from higher elevations:

They have also been using a FLEET of trucks to move in snow from over 80 Miles away.

There's some Canadian inginuity for you :)

Last year we had record snow falls... this year none at sea level.

Easywash,

Cool! It came through our town a while back, but I did not see it (at work). However I remember the Montreal Games as a kid and then getting to use some of the facilities as a track cyclist. The legacy is almost as important as the games itself.

I am one of the believers that the games will be very good for Vancouver! I remember how Expo really put Vancouver on the map. Plus it was a great party!

Now if the Canadians can win enough metals to take the games...that would be perfect! But I'll take beating the Americans in hockey :)

Let it snow! Big Leo
