Once when I was about four, it was the middle of the summer and I wanted it to snow. I asked my Daddy why it couldn't snow, and he replied, "Because the air is too warm. The air has to get cold for it to snow." Being clever, I decided that I was going to cool the air myself. I got one my family's plastic ice packs out of the freezer and laid it in the middle of the driveway. When nothing happened after a few minutes, I thought that maybe the "coldness" was too low to reach the air, so I propped it up on a brick.
