Random observations involving numbers...
Sometime very early this morning my blog had it's 7000th visitor (someone from Brisbane, Australia - bet the weather's better there than here). It blows me away that people not only read some of my blather in the first place, but come back for more! Hat tip to DrugMonkey - much of the traffic I'm getting is due to him.
My very first experimental work-based paper (I used to be a computational biophysicist) has just hit 80 citations. That's about 10/year. Apparently an old dog can teach himself new tricks...
30. The number of degrees (in F; that's about 17C) the temperature is expected to drop by between the time I arrived at work this morning and the time I leave this evening. We're expecting 2-4 inches of mixed snow and ice this evening. Snow I like. Ice sucks.

Congratulations, Odyssey!
Ah! Stay warm and safe!
I feel your pain with the ice - I'm not sure I'll ever be warm again. Oh, and my sources tell me it's hot and humid in Brisbane right now :)
Yep....hot and humid in Brisvegas and warm and sunny in Albany....we even got sun burnt yesterday.
Isis - Thanks!
PiT - Ice really, really sucks. We had two inches of snow last night and it's now raining. Frozen rain... Blech.

I'm trying to think of an appropriate reply. Something along the lines of "I hope you sit on a tack..."
I hate snow mixed with ice too. I live and work in different areas of flatland, and have to drive 84 miles across it each way morning and evening. When it's icy, it takes me 2.5-3 hours, and I run a very strong risk of spending the night in the ditch. :(
I used to like winter...
