And that is why I wear long johns all winter....even driving to work.

I work in a hospital so we wear scrubs. It is insane the number of people I work with who will wear just scrubs and a coat in the winter. Scrubs ain't warm. I always get made fun of for wearing long johns, jeans, wool socks etc and changing into scrubs at work.

I always tell them I hope they don't get stuck or break down....but if they do they won't make fun of me for long.

The writing reminded me of "I was a wittness" thread

WOW. I'd still prefer to GO "cold" over "hot" any day, but hopefully not tomorrow!

I'm feeling a bit chilled now

I like the line; heat is tiny; it is the cold that is huge.

good read!

Good Post. Thanks.
There's an old belief that freezing to death is one of the best ways to die. I'm not so sure after reading that. Don't think I'll try it to find out.

Brrrrr. It's amazing how many people venture out in miserable weather without emergency clothing/supplies in their vehicle.

Interesting article.
