Servus!
I knew that there was a reason why I liked Cambronne - he's a man who has his priorities in order! Nothing can truly compare to the drama and unpredictibility of Nature!
Sadly, there is no Weather Channel here in Germany, but in reality we don't need one. It's either hot and rainy or it's cold and rainy. Either way, it's rainy. My fascination is more with the time the sun rises and sets. Got this really cool program for my palm III that, with the proper latitude and longitude coordinates, will tell you what time the sun and moon will rise, set, and be in transit anywhere in the world. It's a nice knowing EXACTLY how much daylight you will have today. Makes long ride planning simple and easy as opposed to wrought with anguish and hesitation.
