That's what I was driving at.  You have to understand that in Kansas, Storm equates to Rain and Rain equates to Storm.  One's rarely without the other around here; sorry for the misconception.

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

I was going through my backup files, and I found these pictures of this past Winter's ice storm. It was purely ice, it downed 6 trees in my yard, and my power was out for almost a week.. also my family lives on a large hill, so we couldn't go anywhere for the first couple of days.
It was 100% pure ice, there was no snow at all.

Thats not as bad as the one we had in 1994.  Think of a tree wrapped in saran wrap.  That was how our ice storm was.  The only utilities we had for two weeks were gas and water.  No electricity since trees kept falling on the lines.  Heh, and there was like an inch of ice covering the roads.

Had an ice storm around here too, about 1-2 years ago.  There was up to an inch of ice on stuff in places (typical was probably about 1/2" to 5/8").

I am in a pretty big storm right now.  I was watching the Matrix: Reloaded at a new theater when the sirens went off, and we all just thought it was part of the movie, for the first 15 minutes.  My friends phone (on silent) was buzzing like crazy, and when he picked up, he was pretty quick to tell us we had to go.

Lots of funnels were over memphis.

In the car, we were hitting 80 on 40-50mph roads.  When he made a turn in the jeep, we did really cool powerslides.  In fact, we almost hit his mailbox while coming in.


Well, the sirens just quit going off.  Darwin is left unscathed.

Got it bad

Man, you all got it bad. Here are weather never gets that bad. Actually if they see ice on the roads they close school down which is plus for me. That's what happen this winter and we were out for about a week 1/2. This is exactly why I'm moving somewhere where the snow does last that long and it's hot mostly year around. Like maybe Florida. California is just too expensive to live in.

Are you two related. You fight and argue like me and my brother. Taking blows at each other and seeing who can flame each other worst. I bet you two are.

Son and father lock in a battle of wits and war seeing who is the strongest. You know what that reminds me of? Starwars, Luke and DarthVader.

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).
