Hello Matt,

You folks from the left coast and south simply do not understand (think 
George Harrison):

This morning, Saturday 5/09/09, I left home here in Hancock (upper 
peninsula of MI) and drove my son to Marquette for some soccer games (he 
made the travel soccer team).  The outdoor temperature when I left was 
31F.  During the trip, I observed numerous snow squalls and visible 
accumulations of snow (1/8") on the ground in the higher terrain of Baraga 
and Marquette counties.  I drove my Dodge 2500 pickup because I planned to 
stop at Menards. I have not brought out our Corvairs because winter road 
salt has not yet been thoroughly washed off here in the UP.

The games started at 12:00 noon.  Conditions at the field:
Temp 36F
Wind NNW 15-20 MPH
Cloudy with intermittent snow flurries

Even though Clark lives in the "banana belt" of SE Michigan, he understands 
the importance of a good working heater for any car operated in Michigan, 
even if only for the so called summer months.
