Whoa there tiger, breathe.
Fact is, Maine isn't as much like the rest of the USA as most other states. Our one "big" city (like 60,000 people oohhh) reminds me more of Canadian cities than other American cities. And ECP was right, it is just plain colder. And we've got a lot of maple trees.
So I suppose what you said is correct, so long as your ass happens to be made out of foam and cloth. [ 03-15-2004: Message edited by: Suddar ]

It gets that cold there?!? I've never seen anything below -40° Fahrenheit.
And most of the higher temps apply to Germany, also. We had 60° Fahrenheit temperatures today and it was nice enough to go outside in shorts and a tank top!

WTF are you talking about? My city is considered a "small" city and it has 150,000 people. Unless you go to the "boonies" you won't be finding too many "big" cities under that here.

well, depends on the part of canada. Southwestern ontario (where I live as well as a lot of the other Canadian board members) never really gets much under -40, but then you go up to mid ontario, most of quebec, the prairies, and you'll regularly see -60. The maritimes and the upper ends of the middle band get even colder, and then you have yukon/nwt/nunnavut which is as cold as it gets (outside the south pole and parts of northern europe/russia). -100 or -120 isn't unheard of.
No, Really. Bite me.

Not to mention most of Maine is owned by the same two companies most of the Canadian Maritimes are owned by too. (Irving and McCain's.

By big city I meant the biggest in the state. It's the only real city we have.
Where I live is technically a city (25k people), but it's really just a factory town that's grown too big for its briches. Very poor area. We're all, funnily enough, French Canadians. Well, except for me.
