It may well have been this one, which has now made it into Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Satellite_image_of_snow-covered_Great_Britain_on_7_January_2010.jpg
You can get a huge jpeg (3400x4400) from there too.

Stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless logic and experience
prove you wrong. Remember: when the emperor looks naked, the emperor *is*
naked, the truth and a lie are not "sort-of the same thing" and there is
no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza.
