The worst amount of snow I remember is 'bout half a meter while being
away, so we had to get rid of something like 50-70m^3 of snow from our
frontyard. It was a bit of work...

Worst negative temperatures I remember are somewhere around -35 - -40C.
Jan-Feb 2003 we had 'bout month in a row with -30 - 35C.

Well what do you know? :) I've just had an interview for this job and the
interviewer had heard of Pov-Ray and used it. This is the first time outside of
this group that I've come across anyone who has heard of Pov-Ray. I hope he
doesn't know about p.o-t :)

OK, no technical questions just talk about yourself and do you have any
questions for me? 
I'd better not say too much as he might be lurking :)
OK Ilkka :-)

It's a good job I should hear something by the end of the week. Thanks for
asking.

I've been offered the job but they are (or the agency is) being stropy about the
rates. Which makes me think about the quality of the rest of the team (from what
was said in the interview). For such an important and expensive rollout it seems
suicidal so I'm having second thoughts. I don't want to be involved in a botched
job. I've come behind a couple and couldn't believe the state of the
configuration or the documentation. I'll stop airing my thoughts before I talk
myself into resigning before I get a contract. :)
