[DeTomaso] NPC RE: Snow.

[Lynn Wall]

I will not be home for a week but hopefully I will remember to get them to
you.

However, and I know I am speaking for many of us over in the US,  given our
current administration please do not mention special responsibility and law.
Soon we will have hearings, news shows, politicians saving our kids, special
"fees" and eventually a law requiring icicle protection on any elevation
great than 4 feet ;>)

Lynn.
I would like to see those pictures.
I am probably much better of then, (less snow), but the thing is that my
house is an apartment building with a public sidewalk by its side. That
makes for special responsability according to Swedish law.
