When the brake is frozen, I can move the handle up and down w/out 
resistance.  I would image that if the cable as frozen, the hand brake 
lever wouldn't move.

I was able to free it up by gently prying the brake pad away from the 
rotor this last time when the brake was frozen.

Thanks again for all the help.  I'm still considering the new cable as a 
"try it" method.
