Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: The end? And you people live these places on purpose?! I become stultified, paralyzed, immobile, can't think, walking in a fog with lead feet, when it is cold (read below 60 degrees F). Cold pushes me into hibernation mode. My husband? Warmth does not, incredibly, bring him to life, energize him. It makes him sleepy. Stupefies him. He becomes nearly comatose. Exactly as the frozen-in-cold does me. We talked today about whether genetic pre-dispositions are to blame. Considering that my parents came from rather cold locations, that my Mother suffered from heat stroke in AZ, that my brothers both adore the cold and come alive in it, I'm doubting that. The fact that I spent the first 6 years of my life in Phoenix, Arizona, and my husband spent the first 6 years of his life in Minnesota ..... I'm guessing formative years trump genetic markers. Anyone else?Julie Krueger

About -35 in Chicago. I can vouch for it at least 40 years ago. And
that was mini-skirt time.
