That's the nice thing about magnetic fields. I don't have to see what you're doing so long as I can sense it and cell phones have all those lovely metal bits.
Et tu, my dear, et tu. And as not only a native of lovely Illinois, but one fortunate enough to be provided with cold-weather gear, as it were, always at the ready . . . how could I not love winter?
I protest! Snow is perfectly natural. When you drop water particles through the coldness of the uperatomsphere (and be glad you're down here, not up there) it freezes, forming delecate crystal structure and acumulating the way rain would if it couldn't run off in the streets. Basic chemistry.
Well, couldn't you have amonium snowball fights on Europa (presuming you could breath, and the lack of gravity didn't bug you too much)? Or was it Titan? It's been too long since we've gone over any real astronomy.
Absolutely. Science is an exacting mistress, and demands proper attention to every last little detail. I foresee numerous trial throws.
Of course, we couldn't possibly ask Lorna to subject herself to such an ordeal simply out of the goodness of her heart, could we? Why, that would be downright cruel. I think we simply must locate a stand-in for the poor girl. Experimental ethics demand it.
. . . Why, Alison, you're close to her size, aren't you? Certainly close enough for ballpark figures, I'd say . . .
I can't WAIT! Someone needs to find Ororo and nag her about HUGE snowbanks! Lots of light fluffy snow! At least one that should be oh, I don't know... ten feet high? She could do that easily, after all. And Lorna should watch, to observe landing techniques and all!!!
...
You know... if we got Ororo to do a snowbank about of, six feet high minimum, on the west side, near the balcony with the bay windows. Someone could, theoretically, race down the hallway and jump out.

Oh, I most certainly volunteer for this. We can only have the most perfect snow bank toss for my roomie, after all! >:D
