Snow Chaos In Europe

From BBC News:
"Cold weather causes travel chaos"

I am surprised at how poorly most European (especially Western European) countries are dealing with the snow. Millions of people have been affected since the beginning of December and you would think that airlines, airports and governments would have learned and improved things 3 weeks later. It seems that the UK and Germany are the worst. They continue to be unprepared and this causes lots of disruptions on the roads, rails and planes. I am very glad that we had no major delays when we were in Europe (especially at Heathrow and Munich.) I don't think I could keep my cool at the complete disregard the airlines and airports are giving to people. I really hope the EU stands up to what it said and makes all member states implement changes. Some of these places (especially the UK and Germany) need to put their big boy/girl pants on and get back to business - clear the snow and get things moving.
