If you lived there you wouldn't have that problem though. The roads are well maintained and most homes have double storm doors and covered verandahs/porches so you don't have to dig your way out the front door.

I wouldn't live anywhere near Buffalo but New England might be a lot better.

The only good thing about Buffalo is Niagara Falls.

It looks so much bigger than in real life.
And on the Canadian side, where I was, it is overly commercialized to death.
But at least the people were nice.

"Thank god, we have the Maxim and they do not." A short, succinct poem by Hillaire Belloc. He was writing about European Imperialism in Africa in the latter half of the 19th century. Australia was the same - superior technology backed with ruthless efficiency, facing a largely scattered, nomadic indigenous population. The Europeans encountered resistance in and around Sydney, Melbourne and in Tasmania. The Europeans wiped out the Tasmanian Indigenous population - in otherwords, Genocide or "ethnic cleansing". One of the few very successful cases in world history. In Africa, the Indigenous folk gave the Europeans quite a few scares. The Ashanti wars, the Zulu War to name a few. Rorkes Drift was after Isandlwana where 1,200 British soldiers lost their lives. The Africans were not an easy push over, nor were the Indigenous Australians - not by a long shot. The Australian frontier wars did occur.

And we are suffering as a result.
