Nope ... got a great tv ... except that it seems to show a lot of crappy programs:( ... talking of which,I got the (mis)information from the Fox network news. I know I could check this out myself, but it's a gorgeous day and I'm feeling lazy: does latitude make any difference ... because you guys are quite a ways north of us?:confused:

The wind has steadily got worse as the day has wore on, looked like we may have heavy rain earlier too, maybe the wind kept it off, be nice if the wind dropped for morning.
