Wow. 20C is downright balmy. Out of curiosity, where are you from?
Hungary? I remember someone saying something like that. . . anyway, I was
raised in Colorado where in winter it's not common for the temperature to
drop below 0C for weeks at a time. We just bundle up a little and go on
with our lives. Zero degrees *Farenheit* is cold, though. Now I'm living
in Seattle, where it rarely drops below 0C, and I haven't seen any really
cold days yet.
