Sure Bill and Steve rub it in. I'll have you know it got a little above 30 in Ohio last week! LOL
years ago I worked for the Port Authority at LaGuardia Airport and we used urea on the runways because of the corrosion factor of salt.
A number of years ago an employee of the Ohio roadway maintenance crews liquefied urea and they started using it on the roads instead of salt. One little stream 4 to 6 inches apart across the roadway took care of ice better than salt. The cost of urea is higher than salt but liquefying it made it very economical to use instead of salt. And it did a great job.

I do have to admit that after the one 60* day we had I was starting to think about what or if I was going to do a big project with the car this summer but then it cooled off again.   Temps have been above average but its been windy so that puts a bit of a damper on things.

if the winds are calm this afternoon, I'll be taking another run at the grounding (?) problem one or the other Eldorados.   Yesterday was just too unpleasant to stand still outside, so I settled for pulling the mustard weeds out back . . .
