And I guess the 95 degrees is appropriate--after all, most spicy food does come from hot countries, while northern food tends to be on the bland side. So there must be some good reason to eat chili in hot weather. For me a non-issue, I can eat anything in any weather ;-) Nathan Aaron Sandler wrote: > Hi Folks, > > I'd like to thank everyone who emailed me with congrats about my PhD > defense > last week.
