I turned mine on for the first time almost a month ago. I spent a lot of cold winters as a kid, I refuse to do it as an adult.

We never have hot water to shower with. No problem if it's 32 degrees celsius, but in the mornings during 'cold' season when it's 17 or 18 degrees the water feels bloody freezing! eek

I haven't turned the furnace on either,and don't have a fireplace. It's chilly,just not cold enough yet to make me turn the heat on,cause I know as soon as I do the monthly bills are gonna go up.

The heat's been on in my building for a couple of weeks now. I don't control it, but I'm glad it's on.

My apt complex pays for the heat and they don't turn it on until Nov. 1. I've been an icecube and had the flu last week - with no heat!

Winter blackout results in Dutch baby boomStory Highlights
10 villages in eastern Netherlands lost power for two days


By Saeed Ahmed
CNN

(CNN) -- A small cluster of villages in eastern Netherlands has found itself in the midst of a mini-baby boom -- nine months after a power outage plunged its residents in darkness for two chilly days.

"It was cold in the houses," said Anneleas van Eijkeren, spokeswoman for the municipality of Maasdriel. "They went to bed early to keep warm. And nine months later, we have this -- a little bit more babies."

Forty-four percent more, to be exact. Residents gave birth to 26 babies in September, compared with 18 in September 2007.

Maasdriel is a collection of 11 villages with a population of 24,000. Ten of the 11 villages lost power for 50 hours in December after the blades of a helicopter accidentally sheared the cables providing electricity to the area.

"Some people went to other cities, but a lot of people stayed in their house with low temperature," Van Eijkeren said.

The community is battling a declining birth rate, like the rest of the Netherlands -- which ranks among the lowest in the world.

And while the power cut method worked well, Maasdriel doesn't plan on a deliberate repeat.

"Don't even joke," Van Eijkeren said, laughing. "In Holland, we would like to have more inhabitants -- but not in this way.

The dumbest thing I've heard all day is that you spent the time to respond to this post with a negative comment.

If you don't agree, move on.

Spewing negative statements when you don't agree is beyond ignorant.
