...elements were simply a challenge to some outdoorsmen -and women. The combination of -23° temperatures and 46-m.p.h. winds on New Hampshire's Mount Washington created a -95° wind-chill factor-but did not stop some hikers from risking their lives on its lower slopes. The same was true in New York's gale-whipped Adirondacks, where Psychiatric Social Worker Bill Myers explained that people went out in such weather just because it was there. Said he: "It's an aggressive response, not a passive response like staying inside with a blanket...

It was as real and loud as the shout from Elvin Anderson's yelping GT-60 8.20s as he went slip-sliding into that stationwagon. But home...
...audience inside, sheltered from the sub-zero wind-chill cold that the protesters endured, didn't seem to believe that, though. Most politely applauded Colby when he finished. They listened patiently when he explained the necessity for gathering information about other countries. They did not offer dissent when he said that he tried to reform the CIA in 1973, before the sensational revelations about assassinations of foreign leaders, deals with Mafia hit-men, domestic spying...
