Do you have any idea what I was talking about?

The Vaccine schedule has nothing to do with efficacy, but simply with getting as many children vaccinated when they are in the Dr. office.

Why doesn't the CDC set the vaccine schedule based upon the child's immune system development, rather than the well baby check schedule. The Chicken Pox vaccine is dangerous to the vaccinated person as an Adult unless they continue to receive booster shots.

Simple fix people. Tax everyone who is not a native Oregonian enough to destroy vehicles and environment with salt, and to repair ALL of the damaged caused.

Not willing to put up that kind of money? Then shut up!

Salt: Rusts out vehicles, damages already poor water quality, is nasty in the soil as well.

If you want your roads salted, please move to some part of the country where they salt the roads, stop trying to make Oregon just like the place you left!!

I absolutely love this weather. Especially the drivers.
I am a Native Oregonian, (Portland) I took the time to learn how to drive in Snow and Ice. It is not that difficult to be prepared. Unfortunately enough people don't take time to learn or are in too much of a hurry. Over the past 45 years the drivers in the Portland area have gotten worse. Funny how it matches up with the numbers of people moving here. Rarely do you hear natives complaining about the weather, just about the drivers.
