  2. What would you wear to keep from getting wet? After a while, I mean. Chaps would inadequate. Leather would work for a while, but then it wouldn't. Sooner or later, it's going to be coming through. That snow is going to melt, and it's going to make for a wet seat, no matter how you slice it.

  4. I remember hearing that there is no such thing as bad weather, instead there is inadequate clothing. When I worked a night shift I would leave the house in warm sunshine and return in the cold pre dawn, either way I was inadequately dressed.
