			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-394" style="margin-left: 6px; margin-right: 6px;" title="SigAlert snow plow" src="http://vtluu.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/snowplow1.png" alt="SigAlert snow plow" width="350" height="271" />We got more winter rains this week, and of course, this being California, it meant that people started crashing left and right again. Every time it rains I get a bit of perverse satisfaction from watching <a title="SigAlert: live traffic updates" href="http://www.sigalert.com/" target="_blank">SigAlert</a> light up like a Christmas tree as people demonstrate their ineptitude at keeping their vehicles under control. California drivers suck and rain acts has something of a <a title="Wikipedia - Population Bottleneck" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_bottleneck" target="_blank">bottleneck effect</a>: it takes a fraction of the worst drivers off the road, albeit temporarily in most cases.</p>
<p>This week it got cold enough that at modestly higher altitudes snow fell, and as SigAlert showed (excerpt of screenshot shown to the right), even snowplow drivers haven&#8217;t got a clue how to drive.</p>
