Growing Jack Frost

Tran Longmoore Editor

Ice forms in dendritic (tree-like) patterns on glass surfaces when "Jack Frost" visits on cold winter nights. Nature is full of dendritic patterns, which are described by fractal geometry. Such patterns are seen in actual plant growth, snowflakes and alluvial fans (the triangle-shaped branching patterns of sediments shaped by flowing water).

I liked much of what Bret Pollington had to say. However, in his earlier interview with Tran he stated that he's firmly opposed to maintaining the Mill Pond Dam, "full stop". So a vote for Bret is a vote against the dam.

Thanks for the post as you have confirmed my thoughts, all candidates are of the liberal persuasion ! Makes me very glad that my choice for my family was York Township and not the city.
