Yes yes yes!

Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd... (my favorite Andy Bernard)[/quote]

My DD wants to go to Cornell and cannot articulate why.  I honestly think it is because of The Office.  *eye roll*. It’s ok.  She is very unlikely to get in.[/quote]

I'm from the deep South, and spent a few years teaching at Cornell a decade ago. It is hard to exaggerate just how brutal the winters are there if you are not from, say, Minnesota, Maine or Montreal. One gets used to it, I suppose, but if you want a taste try visiting during a "polar vortex" some time in February.[/quote]

+1000. It's not so much the cold (it rarely got below 20F during my years there), it's the sheer VOLUME of snow. Lake effect just dumps snow in the region - was not unheard of to get a few feet in a day, and the year I graduated it snowed on Mother's Day. That said, Ithaca is (was?) really great at snow removal, so the roads were generally clear and it wasn't too difficult to get around. Lots of kids in the dorms would cross-country ski to class...
