Don,

You're absolutely correct on this one. Out this way, where winters are usually extremely mild, we're getting the worst winter in 50 years...

But people who realize you have to work to make money...

Many are coming up with some small snow removal bobcats etc. and putting themselves to work at an average of $80. per hour with a minimum of 2 hours plus traveling time to each destination. A $1,000. a day on the average ain't too shabby for a little bit of work...

Here's another interesting business model I recently came across... Study the Not so new idea including Shawn Hanaee's newspaper startup...

Easily duplicatable for anyone who realizes that you have to work to make money...
