  4. Hmmmm.



    And I was 'cool' riding my motorcycle at -2'C tonight?



    Nothing personal, but I'm glad not to live very close to you right now. And BTW our central heating circulation pump has seized over the summer, and won't re-start, so I'll have to replace it. As it is, I'm wearing a nice warm fleece so I can type without shivering.

  8. Marc - what's the wind chill at 90 mph?



    My jacket has a gap at the neck that lets the cold air in - you get this feeling of spreading chill, like a water leak, that creeps across your chest.



    Back to the polders with you.

  9. Marc - I found this page:



    http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/features/az/alphabet69.shtml



    It offers a wind chill calculation. A couple of minutes with a spreadsheet and it suggested I survived the equivalent of 30 mins between -17'C and -72'C.



    Maybe I could cope with a sask winter after all?

  11. Clever ad, Randall!



    Sorry, Toni. I forgot about the windchill factor.



    I was only teasing anyway...



    Rather vague results, wouldn't you say: a spread of 55'. Or did you mean 17-27?



    What are "polders", Toni?



    Anyhoo...

    I don't know what they do, probably keep out water or something like that, but it souunds Dutch to me.
