    Default I Don't Need No Stinking Thermometers!

    I live in a 1950's building with the original windows. When the tempurature dips below minus 25 my windows frost up and I pretty much know it's too damned cold.

    That's awesome Raiven, it never ceases to amaze me how the patterns of frost are so closely related to ferns and other leave structures, sort of leads me to ponder the idea of a universal mathematical equation underlying everything
