I'm not sure if I'm going to use that engine, or whether the weather.com xml 
feed is compatible with a standalone dataengine type set up.  You have to 
subscribe to the service, and so if I were to write an engine, everyone would 
be downloading off of my subscription - which would make me nervous about 
being responsible for abuse - anyway - I'll think on that.
