I saw this, and thought you might like it.... check out this montage made by someone over in Portland, Oregon showing difficulties on a snowy sloped road. Notice the changing sun angle, and how it affects the success rates of the motorists attempts at climbing the hill. Yet, some still don't get it.

"During an average week Parker's will cook about 150 pigs, 8,000 chickens, 35 gallons of oysters, 200 pounds of shrimp and 400 pounds of flounder and use some 600 gallons of cottonseed oil for frying.
"Historically, Mother's Day is the biggest serving day of the year at Parker's when more than 12,000 plates are prepared, which calls for 45 pigs and some 5,000-6,000 chickens.
"Memorial Day is generally the biggest weekend, when 72 pigs are cooked over the three-day holiday."
