I miss the days when I saw beautiful sunshine all round the year. I guess the beauty in search for subjective truth compensates for sunshine and beautiful flowers I used to see all around the year.

When I lived in places that got seriously cold, I would put on a lovely heavy coat and go for a walk to think, just the same. I'd be less likely to convince my colleagues to meet with me outside, I imagine, but my outside go-for-walks meetings are usually wiith my young students. So perhaps they'd learn that to get the best out of me sometimes they have to walk outside. My current students have learned this. I suspect they'd have learned it in the midwest or elsewhere too.... and invested in the appropriate outdoor equipment. Or gone to be someone else's student. -cvj Maybe.

If you live in the midwest people freeze and so does their imagination. Clifford,
