I really don't recommend running down the highway with 2 feet of snow on top of the trailer. Snow and ice can be a problem in states that have a lot of snow. Much of the problem comes from vehicles traveling too close to trucks and ice blowing off hitting the windshield of the 4 wheeler. :shock:

Thompson, Ritchie, Bell Labs, early 70's..... too many clues Steve. Can we say Unix!
Now the big question........if Bell Labs isn't embroiled in a law suit and is allowed to retain proprietary rights........do we have the whole open architecture environment today.........or do we have another Microsoft, just under a different name in the commercial/educational field.
