I have read with interest and humor many of the letters and comments on our recent snow storm and how we coped, or should I say cooped up.

I have a bit of a different perspective. I love the snow, the more the merrier.

I am not sure what people want our cities to do to cover the once-every-five-year snow storm we get. If we ramp up with expensive equipment to have every street, lane and place cleared within a few hours of the first snowflake, our taxes will sky-rocket and the equipment will sit the rest of time and rust away.

I do believe the cities and counties, and the services they offer, can and should do a better job working together and having a plan to implement every five years.

Metro screwed up relying on articulated buses for their equipment. They are not the proper design. The plow drivers could have not left snow pack in front of side streets, but remember my neighborhood got out every day whenever they wanted even with our lane blocked.
