SUVs in Chicago's Snow

[Lawrence Bardfeld <LB6116@PITCAIRN.com>]

For those of you who may somehow have missed the front page of today's 
Wall Street Journal -- normally, a "must read" for every Audi fan, 
right? :) -- there's an entertaining article in the Journal (no, 
that's not an oxymoron) about all the SUV drivers who discovered 
(surprise!) that they couldn't handle the 20 inches of snow that 
descended upon Chicago.  Although the article refers to the fact that 
"streets were littered as transmissions failed, axles broke, and 
batteries died" the main culprits seem to be, of course, the drivers 
who had no more knowledge of how to deal with the conditions than what 
they derived from Jeep Cherokee commercials.  Unfortunately, I don't 
subscribe to the Internet edition of the Journal, so I can't readily 
make the article available.
