12102006: Yes, driving in snow can be quite crunchy ! Ice is another matter... I did my undergrad at Kent btw.. there is still a bullet hole in the sculpture outside Taylor Hall.
As for Charleston, I worked there for 8 months or so representing Migrant farmworkers in federal court throughout the state.. interesting experience. Other than that I have always lived in this area.... and have been a dedicated "snow driver" .. of course we now have four wheel drive !
