Boxy, Very funny chart. I missed the temp that corresponds with 99% of the people from Ontario descending on sunny Florida in November and not going back until Easter. Is it before or after they plant their gardens? LOL

Hope it is not too "cold eh" up there. Otherwise, I would feel badly telling you that it will be 75 and sunny here tomorrow and I am taking the Donzi out.

Fishboy, I dont't know where you got that rediculous figure of 99%. You are not even close Its only around 72%. The other 28% are in the heating business Keeping the snowbirds homes warm until they return...Ed
