    Interesting that most people associate Hypothermia with cold temperatures. Definitely a nominee for the Darwin Awards[^].

      Careful now. Hypothermia is from cold, Hyperthermia is from heat. It's just that they sound the same when spoken.

            Which would be correct: you mean Hyperthermia[^] for elevated body temperature.

                      Hate words like that. I can never remember whether I'm hyperglycemic or hypoglycemic. Let's find out. Anyone got a candy bar?

                        "heated his house to a fatal 38°C" Ah Brits.. And here I had stopped ragging on them. Aus we have 40°C+ streaks that can go for several weeks at a time. Brits they hit 12°C and raining, so they all go out sunbathing. ;P
