Damp heat, dry heat, argue all you want. It is still too friggin hot. I worked in northern California where it was 100 degrees by 11am, 115+ in the afternoon. I have also experienced below -40, I don't know which is worse.
Maybe it's because I'm Canadian and used to it, but I'd take a deep freeze over extreme heat any day. No matter how cold it gets, you can dress for it.
I'm with you. You can going skiing, sledding, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, play pond hockey, all kinds of things when it's cold out. You can't do anything when it's hot out but sit inside.
I'm with you both. I'll take the cold any day. As a side note, my 5th grade teacher once asked us if we'd rather die from the heat or from the cold. Most everyone in class said "the heat". He explained that in the cold, you just fall asleep. But in the heat, you spend your last hours in agony.
I feel the opposite. No matter how much clothes I put on, I just hate the cold; it gets into my bones and I can't get warm. But the (dry) heat? Love it. Yes, I can enjoy the indoors A/C, but I can also go swimming, boating, jet-skiing...105-110 is perfect summer weather as far as I'm concerned!
