I have awoke from my three-month torpor (mild hybernation)6 inches more
snow predicted this weekend. I am going back to sleep. Please do not send
mail decribing temps above freezing til April. You are making me upset.
Maybe I will move to Kansas.
Compost in the computer room? We have got to party together!
