The holiday 2010 season is destined to go down in wintry infamy for countless would-be travelers, and even residents just trying to get around already in New York City. Here’s a few of them giving their appraisal of the snowy situation in the Big Apple on Tuesday.  —KA

New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

You haven’t heard whining about snow until you’ve lived in Victoria, B.C. where I am! I’m sure New Yorkers are handling their winter snow with the same panache they apply to every situation.

What’s wrong with people? I live here too…all is fine. Guess what? It snowed, we
had a snow storm so big they call it a blizzard! When you have a blizzard, there’s
so much snow that sometimes you can’t get everything plowed fast enough. And
when you do, sometimes it fills in what you already dug out.

OMG! Your car was plowed in and you had to take the train!

At least JA from Toronto has it right…it’s a bit of a hassle but I got there.

It’s like complaining about rain when there’s a thunderstorm.

“Sucks to Be in NYC.”

Excuse me?!  I live in NYC and it does NOT suck to be here, even in a massive winter storm that causes a temporary ruckus.  I wouldn’t trade my NYC apartment for a MANSION anywhere else.

Clearly, you’re just jealous…

Peace.
