Cheer up. The robots won't need to thaw us anyway.i believe we've made no progress in the freeze preserving process for humans sadly
I have been experimenting with using chemicals as preservatives. My current experiment involves ethyl alcohol and oak tannins.i believe we've made no progress in the freeze preserving process for humans sadly
As some of y'all might recall, we lost our Doxie "Hootie" unexpectedly some time ago. We took it really hard.

Well, meet our new Doxie "Utah". She's a real hand full. She's all over the place with her nose everywhere and scooping up whatever she finds - should have named her "Hoover".

Ack! You have used the name of the Poster Who Shall Not Be Named Publicly. I guess you missed that conversation earlier in this thread.
I'm a fan of Central Texas winter, which is like autumn in the northeast. The first couple days of chilly weather, I open the doors & windows until the inside temps are the same as outside. I'll bundle under blankets for a few days. I have a theory that all the insects and rodents are looking for somewhere to spend the winter, and I want my house to give no heat signature. Then, once they are all settled under the neighbor's houses, I'll close it up and turn on the heater. Pest free all winter.Woke up at 5:00 and it was cold in the house and I had to turn the heat on. We set the temp at 65 at night but it was 60 in the house this morning (not use to that) the reason was because it was 40 outside. That's the coolest it's been here since May. I like autumn but it brings an awareness that winter is around the corner and I'm not a fan of winter.
Rodents? In a House with a Cat?? Not in mineand it gets to -36c sometimes outside
They just don't dare
