    Police appealed Sunday to Poles to alert police if they come across homeless or drunk people lying outdoors,


    Don't laugh, happens more often than you would think over here.

    It makes for a nice mess in the air. Washington DC's airports were closed, almost all flights out of NYC were cancelled and runways are still closed, half of the Western-Europe airports have cancelled flights... What a mess...

    Oh, well that is just concrete proof of AGW. My God, after almost 70 years the temp almost reached it's record high.

    Thanks, I will take AGW far more seriously now...or not :lol:
