  I was thinking of the North Koreans, the way they bulldozed our
troops at first. I think the best soldiers and engineers come from
cold places.

  I worked for a lunatic who believed that creative engineers worked
best at 16øC and always had the air conditioning running a mile too
cold. It worked for us anyway; we reamed out the knob and glued it on
so 16C was actually 22C.
