Snow! Yuck! Temperatures below 55 degrees Fahrenheit! Yuck!

Seriously, 65 degrees Fahrenheit is too cold, in my opinion.

I lived in Indonesia on the island of Java for several years. There
are two seasons there. During one it is hot, humid, and rainy. During
the other it is hot, humid, and rainier. I didn't have a problem with
it. It was close to the equator, so the sunset and sunrise times
changed maybe 1/2 hour over the course of the year - very close to 12
hours of daylight all the time.

Huette recommended LA, but as i noted, i have lived in LA, first from
spring 74 through spring 77, and next from spring 82 to fall 88.
(i've lived here in the SF Bay area from September 88 to the present
- i also lived here from spring 1970 through winter 1972) have big
problems with LA smog. I hear it has improved, but i just drove
through there going to San Diego for Thanksgiving, and, well, the sky
was still brown, just a little lighter than it used to be, making my
eyes burn.

As for living in San Diego, well, my mom and my brother live there,
which is reason enough to live somewhere else.
