Sam Prekop’s vocals still melt into the guitar lines, and there is still that straight and clean guitar strumming that provides rich harmonic landscapes for downright beautiful melodies...

And while no one expects all that ice to melt anytime soon, a significant portion--enough to swamp low-lying coastal zones and menace major cities from Bombay to Boston--conceivably might...
...Valleys are not just a biological laboratory; they are a climate laboratory as well. Between 1986 and 2000, scientists involved in a long-running ecological study documented a succession of cold summers that crimped the short, seasonal ice melt to such an extent that not only did lake levels fall but so did the photosynthetic activity that underpins their biology. Then, last summer, from December 2001 through January 2002, temperatures shot up and lake levels soared. For a brief time, conditions became so balmy that streams of meltwater cascaded off glaciers and ice falls, and the Onyx River flowed with...

The staff will update you on the restoration efforts and you won't find anything as wasteful as a bathtub within their walls...
