    Summers are hot in Tejas, and in OK. My daughter lives in Norman, and can attest to that.

    We just received our "warm" weather for January..... Right now it's -35F.... And I've needed to blow the driveway clear every day for the last week....it's a quarter mile long. My little Dere makes the job bearable.

    This is why you disagree about the draft from the tail of the plane, you
    obviously don't have any cold weather to fly in... In fact I bet you never
    even wear long underwear ...

    I'll send you the updated Map version which shows the difference, Chicago is North
    of the newly revised Arctic Circle, whereas Misery is down by the equator.

    Best Regards,
