About 10 years ago it was -68^F here in MN - that was a record I drove to experience, but where I was was about -30^F. Cold enough to pound nails with frozen bananas. Cold enough to toss a glass of hot water into the air and have it fall as ice. Just about everybody's cars wouldn't start even with a block heater because their battery would freeze. I used to ice fish and you can do that in a small shack you build from plywood. Then you sit in there and fish, play cards, and drink beer. Well in this -30^F weather we were inthe shack and had the heater going so it was nice and toasty, but the walls started forming a frost that eventually got 1/2" thick even though it was like 70^F in the shack. Now that's cold. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase Homesite Plus with Dreamweaver from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=55 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:185659 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
