i remember when i was younger, the winters were colder, with alot more snow, mind you im going back to the 70's. then for most of the past 30 years, the weather was milder in the winter. i guess we are due for some cold weather again, i just hate to deal with it, especially when i am work. for you see, i work in a copper mill. My actual department is the smelt house, so i work around molten copper all night long, and on these cold nights, when its in the teens outside, it usually hovers in and around 35 degrees INSIDE. now i can understand if i worked a construction job outside, but seriously, i work inside, and around 2200 degree copper all night, and still i freeze my arse off. i am just glad i have a good running wood stove at the house to keep me warm when im not working. all degrees mentioned are in F
