    We are going to be in the high 20's to mid 30's all this week. We'll have snow of course but warmer temps.

    I guess wind chill will keep the snow from melting too much ?

    Yeah we will be at or around freezing temps, so the snow won't melt much

    No, wind chill actually only affects our skin, not water on the ground in any form.

    No experience with snow but logically shouldn't it melt if the temp > freezing? :)

    wind chill means what it feels like not the actual temp. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Yes...but if there's a lot of it, it will go slowly. We had temperatures in the 50s a couple days last week...but I still have a mound of snow at the end of the driveway at either side, and inside my front yard, where the snow was piled high. It takes a while for that to melt. And the nice temperatures are only during the day. At night it goes right back down, often into the 20s. And the next couple of days the highs are expected to be only in the 20s.

    Looks like you're missing some textures and transparency maps.

    Snow must be a good insulator then :)

    KK, this one is for you http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/8600201.stm Not too much music but I am convinced that you, like me, know what that is he is playing at the start.

    ...ahh bugger, must be blacked out here in the states as there's a message that the media is "not available" in (my) territory".

    Ah that's a shame. It was about this organ, which has just been built http://www.llandaffcathedral.org.uk/Cathedral Organ.htm and had an organist trying it out prior to the Official opening concert. It has finally been finished, costing £1.5million.
    ...was able to pull up some information through a general Net search.

    Apparently the original instrument was rendered unplayable following a lightning strike in 2007. It as replaced temporarily with a fully digital electronic instrument built by a firm here in Oregon (Rodgers). Can't imagine how inadequate that must have sounded in such a large, nearly millennium old cathedral.

    Though still incomplete (missing the Solo division and several stops in the pedal division) in 2010 the instrument was serviceable enough for an inaugural performance of the Gloria from Louis Vierne's Messe Solennelle. I found a short clip on you tube from November last year, not sure what the piece played is but the instrument sounds magnificent.

    The design is similar to that of the Liverpool Cathedral organ with twin mirrored cases on each side of the naive. The casework is much more aesthetically pleasing than the original instrument it replaced and works to both focus and project the sound into the cathedral's interior.

    Actually, it is! When I was a kid, I lived in this project. There were a lot of kids of different ages there. One year there was a lot of snow, and some of the older kids built an igloo. It was quite impressive, and like a real one. When you went inside, you went down a little from the outside level. It still wasn't to the ground, though. And it was warm in there. I was amazed.

    I thought it was interesting that the free Alien Module in the newsletter magically changed into a Living Room.
    Within March Madness, this must be "Anything Can Happen Day".

    I closed Daz Studio and reopened it with the scene and the textures and transparency maps came back.

    And now it has automagically turned back into an alien module.

    Not sure I want that thing in my runtime if it keeps changing shapes.

    is there supposed to be a monthly and a per week freeb? maybe living roon shoulda been the monthly?

    non-complaint - woke up early to check the weather temps, managed to nab the living room.

    maybe the store gnomes are just trying to stir up some conversation with the switchie :)
