Hats Off to all involved in cleaning up the Record Snow in NYC and outlying boroughs!

This two day storm that stretched from Chicago go Boston and down the Eastern Seaboard to Washington D.C. dropped a record one day accumulation in Central Park and helped make February 2010 the "Snowiest Month" EVER since they started recording snowfalls.  As of noon Friday the 30.9 inches of snow eclipsed the old record of 30.5 inches set back in March of 1896. I say all this to commend all of the men and women of the NY Sanitaion Dept. who stayed up around the clock in shifts keeping the roads accessible and open.  Kudos to one and all and to Mayor Bloomberg!  I remember back in 1966 when another Mayor "Lindsay" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lindsay as not so attentive to the forcast and NYC was blasted with the "Blizzard of 66'."  I think it sad that through all this I've not heard a word of thanks to these hard working people.  So here I go, THANK YOU DEPARTMENT OF SANITATION!  New York's Strongest!  God bless you all and safe home.
