Oh my god I want one right now. My childhood dream of building a snow fortress by flamethrowering tunnels through 20 foot deep snow comes closer and closer to fruition...

I invented flamewars on the internet, and the internet.  Gore was "confused".  :P

My old roommate used to set snow on fire with gasoline. I believe he now works for a large investment firm. ;-)

Does it snow where you are in NM?
Yes! It's not Boston-level, though. I think I would have to move to Maine or Alaska to realize my dream. Or maybe Minnesota or upstate New York.

The XM42 from Ion Productions is every pyromaniac's dream come true: a personal, portable flamethrower that's (amazingly still) legal everywhere except California.
The only snow around here in SoCal is some stupid ski resort up in the mountains that every lemming and his mother flocks to.  Imagine how they fit in all those millions of trendy lemmings.
