        @BoingBoing @neilhimself @doctorow Beet juice is also being used on some highways in Canada. More effective than salt alone at low temps

        @BoingBoing As far as I can tell from driving around here the past few weeks, the brine works pretty well.

        @BoingBoing @neilhimself I'd love to pop into Milwaukee in the spring, for about 3 seconds, just to see what Milwaukee would smell like.

        @BoingBoing @neilhimself because in Milwaukee we know 3 things very well. Ice, cheese & beer. I'll bet they work beer in next winter.
