Ok, I admit it, I don't really like snow. Too many bad memories from working for Uncle Sam and the state in really cold weather for really long hours with really crappy equipment. But I recently moved to the low Sierra, and may actually have some of the dreaded white stuff fall on my old bald head real soon. Watching Peter Jennings on the news last night made me think of something I have always wanted to do...capture falling snowflakes and look at them under magnification. Is this something the average person can do, or does it take a PHD with a battery operated electron microscope??? If the average dummy (me) can do it, how???

Any info will be appreciated, long as it doesn't require me to stand outside toooo long
