Baltimore dipped below zero last week. The watermeters all burst, and water poured out into the street creating little frozen rivers. It was quite a sight, but it left us without water for over a day. I don't think they fixed them, but the rest of the pipe must have thawed for us to get some water cause last I checked, the rivers in the street were still flowing. The city is not too on top of things. D.C. being so close, I imagine it could not have been much warmer. Anyone have pictures of the wollemias in D.C. after the cold spell? -Werner J Stiegler www.binghamtonmemorialtree.webs.com

Why would anyone trust personal accounting information to someone who is too stupid to comprehend "no advertising" in the Garden Web Membership??? Perhaps you did comprehend it, but you have the opinion that rules only apply to others, that certainly boosts my faith in your professional ethics...LOL
