Let me say some good things: energy is cheap, and food is inexpensive especially if one does not read contents and isn't concerned what they eat. Like they said above there are nice people and nasty people everywhere. When I went into Alabama couple of times the only thing besides hollo how are you they were curious where I was from. I could never live there because durning dog days of summer it was 80 degrees at 6am. While I love Canadian products and dream of vast spaces where no human ever walked on I doubt very much I will ever end up there. I will say this I rather deal with cold vs. hot because there is only so much one can take off while they can always add layers of clothing.
