Tempest in a teacup. Surely the govt. can put a dollar value to putting weather online. Then they either fund it or they don't depending on how well it competes in the budget process.
You'd think so, huh? It's just the whole idea of pandering to "for-profit" weather providing software vendors leaves one with the warm & fuzzies (not!)...
