The one point of the building science thing that I posted is that the reason you get icedams is you are losing heat thru the roof. If you do the things they suggest you will 1. Not have ice dams 2. Save money on fuel. Sometimes the cure can be done in less time than it takes to chop off ice dams. Most airsealing and insulation upgrades are pretty low tech.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
