Ruthie, I am sorry about the cold, butglad to have the subject come up 
here. I am a T-10 para, so in theory there's o feeling in the feet or 
butt. But by golly when the weather turns cold, my feet feel as though 
there are cold, and so does the bottom. I'd be interested to know if a;
nybody out there knows why this should be so. I ahve also been advised to 
put on stockings, etc. Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't be looking 
toward a tropical latitude when winter sets in. Best,
Harry
