I fortunatly don't have to work outside much in the winter, but I do have to crawl down into the bowels of a lump of iron known as a steam engine. There are times that our engine house hovers around 38 degrees F. When 100 tons of iron gets that cold, EVERYTHING gets cold. Whatever you find to sit on acts like a big heatsink and will suck the heat right out of you. Your butt is numb in about 30 seconds. You can't put extra layers on, or you don't fit into where you need to go.

Come on springtime. [Linked Image]
