15 here in Pa..   went out to the van last night and opened the hatch and the
damn thing stuck open....couldnt close it..had to fumble to remove it with
numb fingers and a key and lots of 4 lettered words to close it..you lose
motor dexterity at those temps.. ..one of the hatch struts froze up..
quite the opposite of what usually happens..   on a side note, afterwards it
was rather interesting (NOT) the phenomenon when my fingers were the same
color as my van (blue)   color coordinated! due to lack of coordination..
 chris  in pa where it's  "effin cold"
