I never received a head injury like those poor people standing around the pool....

I'm just sayin'....    ::)
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.

Well, some of them appear to be there just to watch and others seemed to be dressed in some kind of stripped institutional clothing and others are wearing green t-shirts and shorts, I guess for easier identification by their keepers.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

The lake, in that spot, is four feet deep.  The blocks of ice they removed were three and one half feet thick.  As the water gets deeper the ice thickness stabilized, and the majority of the lake has an ice thickness of 30".  Our small lakes down here have an average ice thickness of 20" to 24" ... Enough to carry my fat ass  ::)

Thickness and % of coverage of the Great Lakes is going to be a problem this Spring if it ever gets here!  Might have to take the motorcycle out in30+ degree weather all Summer!
