More Snow Piling Up While BS Dominates Media

You gotta laugh at the secular crowd: they hate capitalism but love modernity, they rarely marry but when they do they divorce in record numbers, they have 1.3 kids or less whom they fight over or ignore, they smoke dope but hate tobacco, they hate Christianity but love pagan religions, they hate soldiers but love militants, read lots of books but can't see trends, they like happy faces but appear miserable, they follow fads but hate capitalism.....

The big secular fad seems off this year?

Bloomberg:

China's heaviest snowstorms in five decades crushed homes, grounded flights, disrupted electricity and left hundreds of thousands of travelers stranded, a week before millions take to the roads for Lunar New Year holidays.

More than a foot (34 centimeters) of snow fell yesterday in Nanjing in the east, the city's heaviest in 50 years, halting air and rail service, in turn delaying a third of ensuing flights in Beijing and Shanghai and throwing national train service into chaos. Military police kept order at the Beijing railway station today, where 400,000 passengers were stranded.

CNN:

"We've never seen such a cold weather lasting for such long a time," said Tang Shan, a man in his 70s in Changsha, the capital of Hunan province. "The last time we had one here was over 50 years ago, and not this bad."

The snow and sleet have paralyzed roads, railways and airports, leaving tens of millions of travelers marooned, officials say. Many of them are bound for home ahead of the traditional Lunar New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, which falls on February 7.

A series of fierce storms has caused deadly avalanches, flooded streets and set off mud and rock slides in recent days. Some areas have received more moisture in a week than during the entire rainy season last year.

Three skiers were killed Friday by a trio of avalanches that swept through canyons outside the trails of Mountain High ski resort at Wrightwood, northeast of Los Angeles in the San Gabriel Mountains. A fourth man escaped the avalanches.

Avalanches are unusual in the San Gabriel Mountains, but the peaks had been hit by 3 feet or more of new snow this past week, drawing thousands of skiers and snowboarders.

Let's see, snow in Iraq and Iran, coldest winter in Latin America in 90 years, record snow in North America, and now record snow in China. Hmmmm.

I hope it snows and snows and snows. I'd love to see and experience a blizzard for two or three days. I have lots of books.
