Yeah still find it weird that you lose health if you are not in comfortable. I mean if you are not staying hydrated in the heat and warm enough to prevent frost nipping in the cold I don’t really see at least too well why that would affect health, cold being the one I can only really understand.[/quote]
Have you been in an area with high humidity, like most of the East Coast? People can get extremely sick in the summer here from not hydrating and suffer from heat stroke. It’s very real and very dangerous. I’ve worked for landscaping crews in Colorado and Virginia. In Colorado you can work all day and not break a sweat in 100+ temperatures, unlike Virginia where you have to drink so much water just because you sweat so much out. You still have to stay hydrated in Colorado, of course, but I’d much rather deal with dry heat than humid heat. Even the winters are colder out there, but the dry cold is much more tolerable as well, IMO. I walked 2 miles in ~ 3 foot of snow when I first was out in Colorado just because I had never experienced dry snow.dry cold like that before. Also, snow shoveling is so much easier out there than it is here in Virginia, due to the “powder” snow not feeling like a bucket of water every shovel full, like the wet snow here out East. In this humidity, even in the winter you start sweating, in Virginia, then things get really really cold. I didn’t have that problem in Colorado, the sweating in the cold, so it was much nicer. I am no expert of course, so take everything with a grain of salt, these are just my experiences. I only lived in CO for 1 year then moved back to VA.
I don’t know about the primitive tag thing though, sorry.
