Chicago Winter, Part II

We've had plenty of snow already, 20-something inches of it. But, just to make it more exciting the weather gods had to throw in some ice now. It appears the governor (nor the mayor) hasn't figured this salt thing out yet. After waiting for one bus for 10 minutes, I switched over to a different corner to attempt to catch a more "frequent" one. 20 minutes later and I was safely on a bus that proceeded to travel 5 miles an hour to the train. Freezing rain warning at midnight=salt trucks out at 4:00 am... Hmm, and they wonder why there have been over 100 accidents... From the Trib.
