Cold outside (and in)

January 17, 2025 |

In Galton's autobiography of 1909 he discussed a time in his Rutland London address when he felt it necessary to wear 15 articles of clothing to keep himself warm as there was no heat in his house. two of his prized monkeys died in that cold.

I had a similar experience in Conn on Thur Jan 16; the temperature dropped to 5 Fahrenheit and I had no heat nor a wife as she was in London. I froze all over. In a similar event in Chicago 65 years ago my pet Macaque died from the cold.
