        -36 here. -51 windchill predicted tonight.

        But nice bright sun makes it a little easier to take.

          Going through a lot of wood trying to avoid the stupid carbon tax.
          Trees soak up carbon but I have to cut them down and burn them releasing the carbon to avoid the tax that is suppose to lower the amount of carbon released. Not sure that makes sense but thats what we are doing.

            Bloomberg reports this afternoon; numerous Canadian Tesla owners can't get their cars interior cabin temp above -23.5c in the past 2 weeks... speculation it is a 'software' problem... no fix offered by CDN Dealers...contact Tesla head office... who have 'no comment'.

            That would really frost you off after just paying close to $100k for a new car!!!

            Cheers

              If your trying to save the world from CO2 plant fertilizer, then you are obviously doing it wrong.
              You need to do it the same way they are over in Britain and Germany. You need to cut trees down in a different continent using fossil fuel powered machines. Chop it up into little pieces, dry it using fossil fuel natural gas, ship it across the ocean in a fossil fuel powered boat, truck it to a power plant using a fossil fuel powered truck, then burn it in the green renewable power plant.
              Only then is it carbon neutral.
              You probably split it by hand, that definitely doesn't count.

                I had to bring my fire in to warm it up too.

                  To be fair, my Jeep was struggling to warm the cab on the way to work this morning. Was still warmer than -23 though.
