And I'm just so happy that you get your friends to use your favorite words "out of their own free will". :-) Bruce, try to think of the southern parts of Russia (this huge country has everything), where it gets incredibly hot during the summer. I've been there and tried to study with 45°C, which was not easy... ;-) Thanks for this post (and all the others), Josefina! :)
