Maybe Pat sent it from the south so it would bypass you Rick. All I know is it is alot of rain for one day. 6+ inches is way too much for this area in a day. We have set a rainfall record for today beating teh old record by 2 inches which was set back in the 40's.

You're getting the rain because you have the Bay to put it in. EPA may not like it but what the hell.

The EPA doesnt care about that Rick.. But the tax man ( AKA teh Governor, AKA Uncle owe'Malley) sure doesnt like it hence why MD has a rain tax. Yes MD's Governor instituted a rain tax. ( And yes I want to leave the state)

I have gotten used to it CLint. Besides it puts a smile on my face to see confusion from saying Good Morning in the afternoon.

RAIN TAX? I would make sure I would leave the state. Never heard of such a thing. Where is your representation?

MD has a rain tax. Just ask Charlie or anyone from MD that still lives in MD. As for representation the majority of the state is democratic and always votes for the democrats. Owe'Malley is a democrat. He has also raised the gas taxes. ( that is due to go up in January after going up last month.)

Pretty much Rick. It is one reason alot of companies have left the state and why alot of other companies dont want to come into the state. Too many taxes. I wouldnt mind moving to DE or a few other places.
