Below zero is just too darn cold for me. Been in some cold weather, but nothing too far below - 10 F. When I was a kid went to a Michigan Wolverine College Football game and they were passing bottles down the rows which contained some hard liquor. Do not know if the alcohol helped, but it sure numbed the pain. Probably was not even legal drinking age for that game. Later.

I assure you with age I now have no interest in going out in anything below say sixty degrees...heheh. Minus ten is cold enough. You folks in that part have experienced -50 in times past. As your well aware booze simply helps the body expend heat quicker for a temp warm feeling. But in the reality will kill one in super cold conditions.
I have to hit the sack. But in closing in case you might miss it, here is one for you on the Chinese tree ring study. Do have a great upcoming day.
