>A 90+ foot freestanding microwave tower completely encased in

>that is about 25 foot across. It looks like a castle. As the microwave
>antennas are lightly heated, you can just barely see parts of them
>sticking out through the white.

>I've seen towers encased in ice, but at least you could tell that it's
>a tower and you can see the bracings. Not this time--it's just a solid
>block of white.

>To say that we deal with "extremes" up here is an understatement.
