I'll take the 110F summers, thanks. Frozen stuff falling form the sky is just plain wrong. The GloranthaCon held in Toronto in February convinced me that more than one day per year below freezing is way too many. I made the nearly fatal mistake of walking a block from the hotel to eat chinese food. It was OK on the way there. On the way back, my tummy full of tasty things I couldn't identify, the 30 mph wind sheared away all the the pleasure of the meal. In Toronto, I woould probably die faster than a Yankee in a Permian Basin football practice. I can't imagine living further north than that. Do you guys inject the anti-freeze intravenously?
