Mr. Badger, with a name like that, how could I possibly take you seriously?

I meant "dimwit" in a friendly way, of course. I'm sure you intended your
comments to be taken in the same spirit.

It's *Brobdingnagian*. But thanks for the clarification on condescension, I
might have mistaken it for a compliment.

OK, you got me there. So it's 40º instead of 39º. Still want to say you
wear shorts when it is 40º?

I usually wear knickers in the 40's, switch to light tights for 30's, heavy
tights 20's & 10's, sometimes just heavy tights 0's, sometimes with light
warm-ups over if windy.

I have a very thin balaclava (polypro, about t-shirt material weight) which
I don't break out until the 20's. Tops vary, I will have some bare skin in
40's. I usually wear a single layer in 30's with a thin wind vest over.
