It's too damn cold


The average January temperature for Boise is -1.6° C (which is 29° F for you 3rd world folks). My average body temperature is 37° C which is a discrepancy of 38.6°. The wind chill factor at 40 mph (which is about what I do on my scooter) puts the perceived temp down to -10.3° C. That's a perceived difference of 47.3° C (110.6°F!). I don't think my face is meant to withstand such things, I should get a helmet.



Can you tell I'm getting ready for my physics class?
