Intelligent Information Management (IIM)
I live in the Washington, DC, area. That admission is the first step on the 12 step recovery process from Snow Panic Addiction. Washington, DC LOVES nothing better than a snow panic. We close our schools, not when there is snow on the ground, but when it is still 200 miles away.
