Actually, the Atlanta area is quite hilly - basically the city is built along a granite ridge cut through [N and W of the city] by the Chattahoochie River. Relatively high altitude [close to 1000 ft above sea level]. Also heavily wooded. Result: curvy and up and down roads, so when we get snow/ice every 3-5 years, you'd think it was a zombie apocalypse for that day - except, but for the bumper cars, practically everyone is nice and neighborly. Hardly the apocalyptic disaster, requiring the gov't expenditures that make Chi-town [for example] such a great place to be in the winter ... [snark]
