Would like to know what was around. Wood still burns as far as I know. Would have made lousy pioneers.

Read a story on FR on how this happened in Houston, but it was electric cars. There was flooding in the city and the electric cars were useless.

Aye, without global warming instead of the -30C temperatures, the mercury would have dropped to the much more life threatening -30.7C
