Post #67,068 by drewk 12/6/02 8:46:32 AM Reply	The "grandpa scale" Don't remember where I heard this, but take a typical Minnesota grandfather. Send him outside and ask him what it's like: Pretty warm -- the mosquitoes appear on air-traffic radar Nice enough -- pleasent and sunny down through 40F and raining hard Brisk -- Below freezing and possibly snowing (he may start wearing a jacket) Sorta chilly -- wind chill below minus 10 Right cold -- actual temperature below minus 20 and/or wind chill below minus 50 === Microsoft offers them the one thing most business people will pay any price for - the ability to say "we had no choice - everyone's doing it that way." -- [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=38978\|Andrew Grygus]
