Ahh, you mean dumb things like standing in line to get into a club at
-25 with just a jean jacket on? Been there, done that, had the frostbite
to prove it. My limit is about -25, as long as I am not more than 30
feet from a heated building with people inside watching to see if I move
at least once every five minutes.
At -20 a quick-cam doesn't need cooling, the laptop needs heating.
