Did you know that without the benefit of modern technology, winter could actually kill us? It just occured to me that if I locked myself out of my apartment on a cold winter's night and I didn't have a coat or adequate shelter, I could die. This is serious, and I'm not sure how we can stand idly by and let this happen.
As we are still firmly entrenched in autumn, I would like to take this opportunity to strongly suggest we omit winter from this year's schedule. I would be equally happy with a prolonged autumn or early spring. If you need suggestions for a new season in winter's place, I have already come up with a few ideas:
- Braeburn: alternate dry hot days with soggy, mist-filled ones. Except Saturdays which are always balmy and sunny.
- Aloise: really windy and it's always 24 degrees centigrade.
- Demonda: tepid and foggy until 3pm and then it's like a crisp autumn morning for about three hours and then it starts raining that stinging kind of rain until nightfall.
- Omifer: noiseless lightning, purple clouds, ever-rising barometric pressure, howling winds in the distance.
I can come up with others also, but I think this is an excellent launching point. I hope in the interest of public safety you will consider this plea with the utmost sense of urgency and seriousness.
Do not hesitate to call me with any questions.
Hope to see you this spring,
Harvey
