Talking

People in Denver used to tell me, when I wanted to know what compass direction to take, "Look for the mountains; that's west."

It frazzled 'em no end when I pointed out that you couldn't do that on a snowy day, at night, or in areas with lots of trees.

Switch from heat to A/C in one day? Denverites' standard response to that was, "Y' don't need A/C in Colorado." (Crap. When it's a hundred degrees outside, I don't care how dry it is, you need air conditioning!)

(And we switch from "Heat" to "A/C" on the same day pretty often down here in The Swamp, too.)
