Strange Anomaly #45

I guess technically it is not strange, but like Portland the ENTIRE city shuts down with even a mild dusting of snow. The only difference is that since Europe is not slaves to their cars as Americans are, they still can walk to work. So even though it has been below 0 for the last week, snow and ice on the roads and footpaths, there still is a full house at work. We did get to get off early one day when it was snowing like crazy and we wanted to catch buses home!
