    Operative word being "low"....I mean its clear that 1996, 2011 (to most of us) or 2015 isn't en route.

    I am reminded of why I haven't ventured into OT in about 10 years...even for sports.

    Obviously, but that isn't the point. It should not be that way, but it is. And it exacerbates the issue due to the resultant reluctance to get back to work. Its a travesty that the inequality of the income distribution is so severe, but it is.

    That isn't the case with the majority...obviously, the vast majority of people made less staying home.

    Cool. I never entered that thread...maybe once or twice of like literally 10 seconds.

    I'll give it a rest. I have never engaged in this before, as I usually do not venture into banter threads. Sorry if I was beating a dead covid cell.
  8. 40/70 Benchmark
    Right. Its just not worth it to go back to work, so they protract the befits as long as possible, which fosters dependency.

    For once, your killer Hadley Cell may work in our favor lol

    Even during the first shutdown....there were people making more than they did when they worked. That is a fact and a problematic one at that.

    February 2017 may have been decent....but yea. #makefebruarygreatagain

    I agree 100%. I realize that I will get bashed for this, but if it comes down to needing to destroy the economy in order to save the most vulnerable, then I think I would rather see a survival of the fittest and most mindful element come into play.

    That is the most favorable climo time of the year for big snows....like Feb 5-10. Obviously for cold, its 10 days to 2 weeks earlier.

    Let me clarify....if you want to argue that the US opened too soon, I'm not sure that I would disagree. But I think closing the economy again for over a month would do more harm than good. I get it...my own mother is vulnerable, but I can't justify risking a depression when she can just remain quarantined, which she essentially has done. Not to mention the psychological impact on people....especially children, since the whole educational institution is such a catalyst for social development.

    Of course it is. And I am not trying to speak in absolutes. I have learned my lesson on that. Obviously odds of a ratter increase when you see something like that in November, but I still feel okay. If its still there as we approach xmas, then I'll be very concerned.
  16. 40/70 Benchmark
    So sorry, guys.
  17. 40/70 Benchmark
    Yes.
  18. 40/70 Benchmark
    Having intervals like that this season is expected. I just don't think it sits there for 4 months like 2012.
  19. 40/70 Benchmark
    Lot's of people aren't okay with ruining the economy due to a .01% mortality rate. The vulnerable should quarantine.
  20. 40/70 Benchmark
    Please excuse my ignorance, but what is FIL?
  21. 40/70 Benchmark
    Some of us don't have nearly as far to regress as others.
  22. 40/70 Benchmark
    Gotcha.
  23. 40/70 Benchmark
    That storm remains the largest sleet event that I have ever seen...not close.
  24. 40/70 Benchmark
    Despite losing climo, I feel like you have more margin for error with respect to scoring in an unfavorable pattern in March due to the changing wavelengths. All it takes is one well placed bowling ball....
  25. 40/70 Benchmark
    That was 2007...and it was NNE and NYS. Areas north of the pike and beyond rt 128 in SNE had about 6-8" of snow and sleet.
