"Often" is not the same as "always". I already pointed out in my initial
reply that choosing an alternate is a complex exercise. It is pointless of
you to take me to task for a comment that was obviously not meant to cover
all the bases.

Well, I wasn't "taking you to task". And my reply was not so much to
=you= as to the idea, often repeated as a mantra, that an alternate
should be outside the weather system to be really useful.
