The year without a summer (1816)
December 24, 2013, 07:54:40 PM »
I thought that some of you might find this interesting to read. This isn't the article I was looking for but you get the picture.
1816 - The Year without a Summer
The period 1812-1817 was one of exceptional volcanic activity, and the sheer volume of volcanic dust pumped into the atmosphere by these volcanic eruptions caused a general, temporary cooling in the earth's climate around this time.
This temporary climatic cooling peaked during the summer of 1816 was the peak of this cooling and the reason the peak fell in the summer of 1816 is almost certainly die to the eruption of the Tamboro volcano east of Java in April 1815 (believed to be one of the most explosive eruptions of the last 10,000 years). At the time sunspots were blamed for the unseasonable weather (Laskin 1996). Anyway, this eruption put more than 150 million tonnes of dust in the atmosphere which gradually spread around the globe acting as a veil reflecting incoming solar radiation back into space and cooling the earth (temporarily) which in turn caused a change in the world's, and in particular the northern hemisphere's, weather patterns. Some dust from volcanic eruptions in the West Indies in 1812 and Philippines in 1814 was also probably still the atmosphere (Lamb 1995) and this will have helped the global cooling process too.
So if Tamboro erupted in 1815 why wasn't the summer of 1815 rather than the summer of 1816 the year without a summer? Well, the answer is that there is a time lag between a volcanic eruption and a change in weather patterns caused by the length of time needed for stratospheric winds to distribute the volcanic dust particles around the world.
It should at this stage be pointed out that not all volcanic eruptions affect the climate - whether an eruption will affect the climate or not depends on how powerful the eruption is and what part of the atmosphere the dust from the eruption reaches. When volcanoes erupt lots of gas and dust is injected into the atmosphere. Depending on how the volcano erupts (eg vertically or horizontally) and where the volcano is a large eruption can have a cooling effect on the atmosphere which can last for 1-3 years or so. The dust and gases need to reach the Stratosphere (more than 10km above sea level) where winds at that level in the atmosphere can blow the dust and gas around the world. The dust and gas then reflect energy from the sun which would otherwise reach the earth back into space this cooling the earth and altering its weather patterns. This sort of thing has happened from time to time through the earth's history and most recently in the early 1990's when the eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991 cooled global temperatures in 1992 by around half a degree.
Now, here some of the highlights of the year without a summer:
Between May and September southern Quebec was affected by a series of cold waves which killed crop and led to near famine conditions in some parts. During one such cold spell between June 6th and 10th 30-36cms snow lay on the ground in Quebec City. Meanwhile on June 6th and 8th it snowed in Montreal (Neil Davids 1976). Sub-zero temperatures during June blackened crops and froze ponds killing wildfowl.
Some mornings in July and August were decidedly chilly and probably frosty, whilst hard frosts on 11th, 12th and 27th September ended the already shortened growing season.
Northeastern USA
In New England the summer of 1816 included some early June snow, cold nights in both July and August, for example the widespread frost at low level sites around New England on the 8-9th July and the damaging frosts on the 22nd August from interior New England right the way south into North Carolina (Ludlum 1989). There were droughts too and finally killing frosts in September, such as that of the 27th in New England (Ludlum 1976, 1989). This all led to crop failures and food shortages and helped stimulate a move westwards the following year. In both Connecticut and parts of New York State frosts after April are rare, but in 1816 frosts were recorded every month of the year (Lamb 1816, Neil Davids).
Summer temperatures were between slightly below average and 3-5 degrees below average, depending on which source you choose to believe. The most severe cold snap came in early June and killed the vegetable crop in parts of New England, ruining some farmers. This, and a couple of other cold snaps, each just a few days long, has made the summer of 1816 notorious and infamous, hadly surprising given the far reaching consequences of the unseasonable weather. The worst of the weather and of the effects of the poor weather was in northern New England. However, conditions during the summer were also, well, summer-like at times. For example, a late June heatwave saw temperatures top 32C between the 22nd and 24th June and temperatures were near normal for much of the first two-thirds of August (Ludlum 1985). It should also be pointed out that since 1816 it has been just as cold or even colder in each of the summer months but never in consecutive months.
The most notorious part of the infamous summer of '16 was the cold snap in early June. Juen began promising enough and on the 5th temperatures in New England climbed into the low 30's Celsius, for example Salem, Mass., reached 32C. However, during the afternoon of the 5th thundery showers broke out over New England and later in the day a cold front swept across the region, dragging cold air down from Canada in its wake. The next day, the 6th, was much colder. Some places were as much as 27 degrees colder than the day before (Ludlum 1989), and in parts of Vermont and in Boston temperatures reached little more than 7C (Ludlum 1985, Laskin 1996). Conditions turned colder during the next 2 or 3 days and precipitation that fell became increasingly wintry in nature. On the 7th snow fell over the northern highlands of New England, snow flurries fell in parts of Connecticut and Massachusetts (Ludlum 1976), in Salem and Boston for example, and away from the coast, snow fell in June as far south as 42 degrees north (Lamb 1995). Near Danville, Vermont snowdrifts just over 50cms high were reported (Ludlum 1985). Contemporary reports spoke of prolonged falls of snow, snow settling and lying for a couple of days and very windy weather at times (Ludlum 1985). However, by the 10th and 11th conditions began to improve, although mornings were still frosty.
By the 12th June 1816 temperatures were rather more normal and in the 20's Celsius, and there they stayed until the 22nd to the 24th when something of a heatwave developed; during these 3 days temperatures around New England widely topped 32C. On the 23rd a high of 37C was recorded at Waltham, Massachusetts (Ludlum 1976) whilst on 24th June Salem, Massachusettes also reached 37C (Ludlum 1989). The Boston area also reached the high 30's Celsius during this time (Ludlum 1985).
July 1816 was notable for a lack of warm nights, which, it turns out, are necessary in allowing corn to grow and ripen. Some of the coldest nights were on the 8th and 9th when a light ground frost affected some areas, such as the Upper Connecticut Valley and at Middlebury, Windsor and Williamstown in Vermont (Ludlum 1985). July 1816 was also a very dry month and drought began to affect the harvest in some parts of New England. Moving into August, temperatures were normal for the first two-thirds of the month, and peaked in the low 30's Celsius on the 18th and 19th, whilst connditions remained dry. The passage of an active cold front on the 20th led to a cooling down and a couple of spells of frosty nights during the last third of the month which wiped out crops in some northern parts of New England (Ludlum 1985). Contemporary reports mentioned snow covered mountains in August and the dry, cool conditions of late August persisted through September which ended with a series of crop killing frosts (Ludlum 1985).
Europe was worse affected than the USA (possibly something to do with the relative sizes of population rather than weather conditions themselves). Either way, cold weather and rain caused crop failures and famine.
During the summer the northern hemisphere's most unsettled weather is usually concentrated in the sub-Arctic region. However, during the summer of 1816 some of the northern hemisphere most unsettled weather was to be found in an area extending from Newfoundland eastwards across the Atlantic Ocean and England into the southern Baltic.
With this in mind it's perhaps to suprise to find that it rained on 142 out of 153 days during the May-September period in Ireland. In England the Central England Temperature Series value for the summer of 1816 is 13.37C, the third coldest summer on record (records began in 1659) behind those of 1725 (13.17C) and 1695 (13.1C) which occured during the Little Ice Age. A few Mays, plenty of Septembers and a couple of Octobers in England have been warmer than any of the three summer months in the summer of 1816. Low temperatures and prolonged rain caused crop failures in some western parts of Britain whilst to the south-east parts of Switzerland experience famine due to crop failures (Lamb 1995).
Away from Britain, there were food riots in France and Switzerland and at least 200,000 died from hunger and a typhus epidemic in Europe whilst in Germany there was a sharp peak in rye prices in 1816 and 1817 and around Europe wheat prices also rose at that time. Meanwhile, near Iceland sea ice persisted into June. The unusual weather patterns of the summer of 1816 have also been blamed for causing or adding to the severity of a number of plagues and epidemics, including the 1816-1819 European typhus epidemic which was among the severest ever, a plague which affected south-eastern Europe and the Mediterranean between 1816 and 1819 (Lamb 1995).
So far we've focused on where weather patterns were negatively altered, but whenever there are unusually cold and wet weather patterns in one part of the world the opposite weather pattern will occur somewhere else in the world to compensate. And so it was in the summer of 1816 when Ukraine had a hot summer and northern Scotland and the Shetland Islands were fine (Lamb 1995).
The Asian summer monsoon didn't go unaffected; the far east and Korea had some heavy rains whilst summer rainfall over India was concentrated in the south of the country and a huge cholrea epidemic which began in 1816-17 may also have been linked to the adverse weather conditions during the summer of 1816 (Lamb 1995).
Consequences and Final Remarks
The near destruction of the harvest in New England led to the first mass migration out of New England to the mid-west which in turn led to a shift of farming away from eastern USA. In other words, a few days of bad weather one summer nearly 200 years changed farming in the USA for ever! The summer of 1816 and the fact that in England other summers at this time were cooler and wetter than in the 18th century may have led to the practice of irrigation being abandoned, particularly from the 1820's onwards (Lamb 1995). In the far east climatic cooling in the early 19th century led to crop failures in the Yantze Valley in China and in parts of Japan. Globally, the period 1820-1850 was one of social upheaval, international migration, disease epidemics and various crises and some writers have suggested that this might not be entirely unconnected to the climatic events during the 1810's.
Some of these consequences are perhaps not directly attributable to the summer of 1816, but certainly to the general climate of the time, but one definite consequence of the summer of 1816 is that the bad summer weather over central Europe inspired Mary Shelley to write her novel Frankenstein.

Marry Shelley and a bunch of her friends and husband went on a summer vacation. the weather was so bad that they settled inside and had a writing contest. Marry was the one who actually finished her story and it was published a couple of years later anonymously, because no one thought it would sell if people knew a woman had written in. For many years it was thought that her writer husband had penned it.
so the story goes.....

A bombshell from Kia: Lady Gaga, Twitter, YouTube, Shazam and the VMAs
Kia has produced one of the year's most memorable adverts, and with the use of Lady Gaga, Twitter, the VMAs and Shazam, the brand looks set for some great 'traction'.
The advert featuring Lady Gaga's new single, Applause, and a handful of America's Next Top Model cast members premiered during the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) show on 25th of August, racking up 10.1m live viewers.
The Kia Soul demographic fits well with that of the VMAs. With many first-time drivers tuning in, the moderately priced and trendy car was a hit, as seen by some of the many tweets.
The coming age of Twittervision
For over 65 years, the $70bn TV industry has been traded on one currency...now all that is about to change.
Twitter's Vice President Joel Lunenfeld recently appeared on a Bloomberg TV segment to discuss the findings of a study linking tweets to live TV, and more importantly for his shareholders, to announce a new partnership and ranking method devised with Nielsen.
The two behemoths want to make watching TV with Twitter (see:second screen experience) 'even better for you, the TV fan,' according to Twitter's blog post on the announcement.
What does this coming new age of measurement mean for marketers and what can you do now to prepare? Read on to find out.
The changing face of narrative in content marketing and campaigns
The importance of content marketing in a world inundated with data is becoming increasing apparent. In fact, if you aren't doing it, the money and time spent on what you are producing is frankly a waste. Content is now a vital part of search as marketers move away from thinking only in an overabundance of keywords.
But what about story and the future of narrative? We looked back at a couple of the videos from our recent JUMP conference that highlighted the importance of story and looking at new ways to create it.
The Twitter landscape of 2013: recommendations for brands
As brands continue to increase investments in Twitter as a communication increasing opportunities arise to learn from the activity taking place on the and how to better use it to your advantage from a business perspective.
A Brandwatch report, which has studied over 10,000 random tweets has established some key trends that will impact the way we use Twitter in 2013.
The results, which analysed brand mentions and consumer voice, are especially important for brands to understand Twitter as a communication channel.
How social media is impacting Australian TV viewing habits
A new Yahoo!7 survey has revealed that social media is playing an increasingly larger role in influencing the television viewing habits of Australians.
The second annual Social TV Survey polled more than 7,000 online Australians late last year and found that almost half of the respondents (43%) used social media while watching television.
All the facts about Twitter's mobile users: infographic
Of all the major social networks, Twitter is perhaps the one that is most inherently suited to mobile due to the transient nature of 140 character tweets.
Of course that doesn't necessarily mean that it has been any more successful than the others in coming up with a coherent policy for monetising its mobile apps.
But even so, this infographic shows just how much potential lies in Twitter's mobile platform. The social giant has more than 10m users in the UK, of which 80% access the network using a mobile device.
Nine questions every CMO should ask their mobile strategist
With a recent study showing that only a tiny 14% of CMOs are happy with their mobile strategy we thought it was about time people start asking questions about their brand in mobile.
Mike Philips (Strategist) and I put together nine questions that every CMO should ask their mobile strategist.
Is Twitter transforming the way we watch TV?
Social media monitoring company Brandwatch has recently undertaken a study to unveil how Twitter is transforming the way we watch TV.
The study, which analysed Twitter conversation during 50 of the top UK and US TV shows has highlighted a number of key TV 'dual screen' behaviours.
It has outlined the TV shows are taking full advantage of their Twitter presence in order to grow and retain a loyal customer following.
Stats: Twitter's relationship with TV revealed
There was a huge amount of buzz last year around the inevitable rise of connected TV, which sounded great but rather ignored the fact that viewers were already using their smartphones to interact with what they were watching.
New apps like Zeebox have achieved huge success by allowing people to share their TV viewing experience with others, but Twitter and Facebook remain as two of the main ways of talking about TV.
To highlight the depth of this link, Twitter has published a new report revealing some of the ways in which consumers use the social network to engage with TV shows.
Here are some of the most interesting stats and cases studies, but for more information on this topic checkout our Twitter for Business Best Practice Guide and this blog post on what can we learn from the top five retail brands on Twitter.
The mobile train has left the station: Are you on board?
There are a few times when we realize that a certain technology is going to change everything about our lives: the first time we used a cell phone, received an email, searched the Internet or downloaded a song. This past Black Friday was the day we realized that mobile shopping would have just that sort of impact.
On Black Friday 2012, one out of every four dollars spent online at retail websites came from a mobile device. This amounts to more than $300 million dollars in one day alone. For those retailers who've already embraced mobile, it was a day of celebration, a culmination of their hard work and foresight. For retailers who didn't get their share of this new mobile world, it's a wake-up call: Get with the mobile program, or have consumers leave you behind.
Q&A: Lovehoney's Matthew Curry on jiggle balls, TV and user experience
Matthew Curry is Head of E-commerce at adult retailer Lovehoney, and he'll be speaking at our JUMP event on October 10.
He'l be talking about how offline PR affects online sales, after the company were featured in a recent Channel 4 documentary.
I've been asking Matthew about his presentation, the effects of TV coverage, and his approach to user experience.
AT&T AdWorks to bring TV, mobile data to online ad targeting
Targeting technologies have become more sophisticated over the years, but reaching the right consumers at the right time is still a major focus for advertisers and ad networks.
AT&T's ad network, AdWorks, which the company claims reaches some 181m unique users per month, is planning to roll out a new approach to this long-standing challenge in September.

In the future, according to this film, our currency will not be money but time. Everyone gets 25 years. Then the clock starts ticking down. If you have not earned, begged, borrowed, stolen, or inherited time, you die.
Everything is bought and sold for time. A millionaire has a million years saved up and can use them to buy a mansion, hire bodyguards, and postpone death, perpetually looking 25 years old. Everyone else lives — literally — one day at a time.
Writer/director Andrew Niccol likes provocative ideas (he wrote the similarly dystopic "Gattaca" as well as "The Truman Show" and the underrated "Lord of War" and "S1mone") and this is a good one, well timed with themes that resonate with the 99%/Occupy Wall Street/collapse of the Greek economy issues. People treat and speak of time in this world the way we do with money. Prostitutes offer ten minutes in exchange for an hour of extra life. Toll roads charge in years. People speak of those who "come from time" (inherited wealth) and a nouveau riche character is spotted because he moves fast ("not in everything," he responds coolly). Those who are used to wealth move very slowly, first because they have literally all the time in the world and second because the one thing that can kill them is a violent accident — or murder.
Justin Timberlake plays Will, a guy from the poor side of town whose fury at being unable to get more time for his mother (the three years younger than the real-life Timberlake Olivia Wilde) makes him determined to topple the entire system. Amanda Seyfried in a red Dora the Explorer-style bob is Sylvia, the wealthy girl he takes hostage until like a cross between Patty Hearst, Bonnie Parker, and Maid Marian, she joins him on a crime spree, stealing time and giving it to those who are running out. Cillian Murphy plays the "Timekeeper" who is chasing them, and "Mad Men's" Vincent Kartheiser plays Sylvia's father, who has all the time in the world and wants to keep it that way.
The production design contributes a lot to the story with retro cars and phones in the poorer communities and banks like citadels, and Roger Deakins' cinematography makes the world of the story look bleak but not hopeless. Timberlake and Seyfried are both talented performers who are a bit out of their element in a sci-fi action film. The idea is better than the execution and it gets rather silly in the last half hour. Until then it is kept aloft by a timely concept that strikes pretty close to home.
Parents should know that this film includes dystopic themes, characters in frequent peril and some are injured and killed. Other characters die abruptly because they "run out of time." There is brief strong language, a nude swim, and a non-explicit sexual situation and prostitutes.
Family discussion: Why would a culture decide to adopt an economy based on time instead of money? How is that different from a money-based economy and, more important, how is it the same?
If you like this, try: "Gattaca" and "Children of Men"

Paul Davis:
Designating persons as strata is a faulty strategy. In panel studies,
standard errors are based on between-panel variation. In the Cox model,
stratum differences contribute nothing to standard errors. These will be
based on the assumption that observations on a single person are
independent, conditional on the model. The preferred approach is to
declare person as a cluster variable.. See section 3.2 of
If there are issues applying the FAQ to your data, we'd want to know
more about your study questions and data, including how you define your
events, whether the start times and censoring times in your -stset- are
exact; and how they relate to the study interview times.
A minor point: "strata" is is an option of -stcox-,
not a command.
As to your original question: Stratification did not drop anybody. You need to
re-examine your reasons for thinking that it should have.

Using the strata command, my sample should be lower than it is with an unstratified model as the analysis drops certain individuals. However, I've noticed that Stata reports the same number observations and subjects when using the stratified and unstratified models. Is there a command to isolate only those observations that are used (or, alternatively, those that were dropped)? Using "e(sample)==1" gives the same result as that which is reported in the output tables.

was I imagining things?
It was not in the typical feminine/perfume shaped bottles Chanel puts out, because I know there is a No 19 for the ladies.
I opened it up and it smelled masculine, so......has there ever been a No 19 Chanel for men?
Maybe No 18? I should have my eyes examined.

Sorry, I guess I should have mentioned it was at a yard sale. What do they call'em there in Sweden or Holland?
You didnt buy? Perhaps the perfume had turned(?)
Was it a column shaped, rectangular bottle like this: http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x...9420_LARGE.jpg
No 19 m ight easily strike one as masculine, esp in the heavier concentrations. Esp in the original formula. I have a seventies vintage parfum that smells categorically "masculine", like a predecessor of Egoiste Platinum, oddly.
Chanel No. 19 was released in the 1970s as a feminine. Today, it smells like a "men's" scent.
It was marketed only to women. I know it does not smell like the fruity, sugary concoctions coming out for women these days, but it is indeed for women.
I have the new EDP, which seems less leathery than the EDT.
"...her fragrance all in my keeping; softly she comes in the night." Lyrics, Gordon Lightfoot, "Softly."
It must be an original bottle from the 70's, it looked worn and weathered and not anything like the modern vessels that I have come across on the internet. Thank you all for your input.

Explorer staff reports
An electric cooperative with its headquarters in the Northwest has been granted $933,4568 to help build a solar photovoltaic array.
Trico Electric Cooperative in Marana is building a 210-kilowatt array at its Tangerine Road headquarters. This system will support Trico's SunWatts Program, designed for members who wish to invest in renewable energy, but are unable due to space issues or economic barriers, a release said.
Construction of the solar farm – officially called Trico's Community Supported Solar Demonstration Project – begins this fall.
"This is a very exciting time for Trico," said Vincent Nitido, Trico's CEO and general manager. "This project demonstrates Trico's commitment to renewable resources and gives our customers another opportunity to invest in renewable energy."
Under a plan Trico is submitting to the Arizona Corporation Commission for approval, Trico customers can purchase portions of solar panels in quarter, half and full-panel increments. They'll receive a credit on their bill reflecting the energy generated by the panels.
"People whose homes aren't sited properly for solar, people who rent or people that don't have the funds to buy a whole system for their home — this program was designed with them in mind," Nitido said. "They will be able to directly invest and benefit from renewable energy technologies on a scale that fits their needs." The panels are projected to be in service by 2011.
As a non-profit electric cooperative, Trico isn't eligible to receive state or federal tax incentives to offset the cost of renewable generation. Without these grant funds, a Trico-owned solar farm project "wouldn't be possible," the cooperative said in a release.
SunWatts has more than 200 participants who have installed photovoltaic systems for their homes and businesses. More than 70 Trico customers have installed solar water heaters through the SunWatts program.

The White Moll HTML version
Room Number Eleven
Another five minutes, and in her own personality now, a slim, trim figure, neatly gloved,
the heavy veil affording ample protection to her features, Rhoda Gray emerged from the
shed and the lane, and started rapidly toward lower Sixth Avenue. And as she walked, her
mind, released for the moment from the consideration of her immediate venture, began
again, as it had so many times in the last three days, its striving and its searching after
some loophole of escape from her own desperate situation. But only, as it ever did,
confusion came - a chaos of things, contributory things and circumstances, and the
personalities of those with whom this impossible existence had thrown her into contact.
Little by little she was becoming acquainted with the personnel of the gang - in an
impersonal way, mostly. Apart from Danglar, there was Shluker, who must of necessity
be one of them; and Skeeny, the man who had been with Danglar in Shluker's room; and
the Cricket, whom she had never seen; and besides these, there were those who were
mentioned in the cipher message to-night, and detailed to the performance of the various
acts and scenes that were to lead up to the final climax - which, she supposed, was the
object and reason for the cipher message, in order that even those not actually employed
might be thoroughly conversant with the entire plan, and ready to act intelligently if
called upon. For there were others, of course, as witness herself, or, rather, Gypsy Nan,
whose personality she had so unwillingly usurped.
It was vital, necessary, that she should know them all, and more than in that impersonal
way, if she counted upon ever freeing herself of the guilt attributed to her. For she could
see no other way but one - that of exposing and proving the guilt of this vile clique who
now surrounded her, and who had actually instigated and planned the crime of which she
was accused. And it was not an easy task!
And then there were those outside this unholy circle who kept forcing their existence
upon her consciousness, because they, too, played an intimate part in the sordid drama
which revolved around her, and whose end she could not foresee. There was, for instance
- the Adventurer. She drew in her breath quickly. She felt the color creep slowly upward,
and tinge her throat and cheeks - and then the little chin, strong and firm, was lifted in a
sort of self-defiant challenge. True, the man had been a great deal in her thoughts, but
that was only because her curiosity was piqued, and because on two occasions now she
had had very real cause for gratitude to him. If it had not been for the Adventurer, she
would even now be behind prison bars. Why shouldn't she think of him? She was not an
ingrate! Why shouldn't she be interested? There was something piquantly mysterious
about the man - who called himself an adventurer. She would even have given a good
deal to know who he really was, and how he, too, came to be so conversant with
Danglar's plans as fast as they were matured, and why, on those two particular occasions,
he had not only gone out of his way to be of service to her, but had done so at very grave
risk to himself. Of course, she was interested in him - in that way. How could she help it?
But in any other way - the little chin was still tilted defiantly upward - even the
suggestion was absurd. The man might be chivalrous, courageous, yes, outwardly, even a
gentleman in both manner and appearance; he might be all those things, and, indeed, was
- but he was a thief, a professional thief and crook. It seemed very strange, of course; but

I think it would be quite interesting to hear what everybody's first car was/is/hope will be. A lot of times, first cars have some fantastic stories and i think they would be great to hear. Personally, considering i can't drive, I'm really, really hoping that by some lucky turn of events i will get my dad's MINI JCW. Hey, my brother got his Cooper S before it. As long as my brother doesn't mind me getting the better one (he says he doesn't, cuz he loves his MINI), then i might be set. If i don't get the JCW my dad will prolly go used for me, and he hates the used car market. hopefully he'll go "Ah, forget it, just take mine and be careful - i'll treat myself to a new car" My dad said i need good grades, so i'm dead set on trying really hard for A LOT of A's (4.0 anybody?). Thats my story-to-be. The more and more i think about it, the more i realize how far fetched it is to get a $30,000+ MINI. BUT CERTAINLY NOT IMPOSSIBLE, ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN.How about you guys?
Since my first car will be five years from now, I hope to get a Nice FWD Sedan. Manual Tranny.Prehaps a Used Fit, Yaris, Cobalt or Caliber?

lol. SHOs were far from loosermobiles. well, exept from the oval ones. but i want a brand new stang. i want to wait a little though to see the details on the new stang. if not i will just continue driving our 00 malibu.
