Craig Peterson Good morning, everybody. Craig Peterson here, Man. I don't know if you got snow where you live. We ended up with snow here in the northeast, and my kids took a yardstick out and stuck it in the snow. Now, the way you usually measure snow is they melt the snow and see how many inches of water is present. If it had been raining, how much would it be? Well, a local guy here has a weather station, and it came out to 1.7 inches of rainwater or precipitation. And typically, what happens is you take it, and you say one inch of melted precipitation equals one foot of snow. So if they say, Hey, we're going to get, or we had a foot of snow, it doesn't really mean that you had a foot in your yard. You know, it means that well, heck, it could be six inches. It depends on how fluffy that snow is. So we took a yardstick out, and I remember 1.7 inches of rain is what they said here, the guy who lives about two blocks away from me. And what we measured was drumroll, please. We got about 22 inches of snow. Now you can undoubtedly have a band that would account for more snow, you know, we might have had more water, but it's pretty close because that'd be 1.7 feet of snow according to his measurements. So we got a lot of snow out there that wasn't windy or anything, so we didn't get a lot of drafts or blowing snow. But it just came down. It snowed here for about two days. It was so pretty, and it's kind of pretty out there right now is no fun cleaning at all. But thank goodness that kids are still at home, some of them anyway. And they cleaned it up for me. Anyways, this morning. I was on with Ken and Matt, and we had two topics that I think are extremely important. I'm glad they picked these. They have to do with some of the killer technology that China's selling to Iran in case you're not aware of what's happening in Iran right now. You might want to look it up. They are killing protesters in Iran. I mean, like snipers from rooftops and governments shooting them. It's incredible. And SMS man, that's a technology that needs to go so here we go. tech guru

Ken Altschuler Our Tech Guru, Craig Peterson, is on right now on the WGAN Morning News with Ken and Matt.

Matt Gagnon Back again at 738 on the WGAN Morning News with Ken and Matt Craig Peterson. Our tech guru joins us at this time every week this week is no exception. Craig, welcome back to the program.

Craig Peterson Hey, good morning, gentlemen, and everybody else out there. I hope you're having a great day enjoying this snow.

Ken Altschuler Well, I saw this story on your website about SMS. No SMS and why you shouldn't use it anymore. Do I? Do I use SMS things?

Matt Gagnon Yes, you do.

Ken Altschuler Hey, why should I not use texting, right? I mean, just basic text is SMS, right?

Craig Peterson Yeah, exactly what it's been around for a long time.

Ken Altschuler Why should I use it?

Craig Peterson It was quite a stretch for a Segway I'm afraid. Well, here's what's going on. SMS is something that we've been using for a very long time. Now not all the time when you're quote texting, unquote. Are you using SMS, but it started way back when we first had cellular phones, and the phones themselves ha
