    Yes, because we are a nation that us permanently under 10 feet of snow year round. Thank goodness for you the snow just happens to end right at the border! You lucky people get to wear tee-shirts while I'm stuck in this bloody parka 24/7. At least we have **** loads of oil down underneath all of that frost and snow. :)

    Willow, I am familiar with Orleans, very nice area! I been mainly working in the Ottawa area for the past 20 years (DND originally brought me in the area) Presently I work in Nepean (Huntclub - Price of Whales area).

    You should all pay a visit at www.digitalhome.ca if you haven't done it so far! A good compliment to your speakers forum as it covers the remainder of your gear and you can meet Canadians from all over the country. I flip flop between the 2 forums my self!

    Cheers :)
