Crystal had written about hearing the Cos's advice "turn in the
direction of the skid ..." in a tight spot. Happened to me too,
in Tulsa in 1975.  (Yoowza - where'd that station wagon come from???)

On the "I can drive in snow" thread - I heard a statement that I
agree with.  Most of the people who say "I'm from BigSnowState
and I know how to drive in Snow" usually are missing two crucial
differences: wet snow and hills. And irregular snow falls.  That's 
three. [Amoung the differences are ...]

With out the regualr snowfall there is less chance to practice.
The wet snow makes for slick roads in a heartbeat, and the hills
just tend to negate SOP for intersections (The snow and ice rules
are that traffic up the hill has right of way unless you are sliding
sideways down the hill.  Sliding down the hill backwards is still a
2 point penalty.)

Me ... I live close to the store, if it Snows I walk.
If it rains I walk, if the sunshines I walk, if there's
fog I walk.
