[QUOTE="Janx, post: 6242966, member: 8835"] I a few years back, I saw a pseudo-science article (meaning I can't prove it with lots of science but it seemed plausible) that claimed northerners were testably tougher than southerners. One example it cited was the old lady who fell in a snowbank in Duluth and didn't get found for a decent chunk of time and she turned out more OK than expected. It implied us northerners had some natural resistance to that kind of thing that was testably lacking in warmer-climate people. There's probably some counter science that says we melt like candles in the heat. compared to our southern cousins as well. Either way, I can more readily handle -40F with windchill by applying clothing. Once it hits 100F, there ain't no greater level of naked I can get to make 100F bearable. It's still too freakin hot, and now the natives are scared. [/QUOTE]
