"We just don't get this kind of cold for three weeks at a time
in Reykjavik," Mr. Oskarsson said of the Icelandic capital,
his home.

Be proud....after aiming your ice missiles.

Except they're talking about not-that-cold at all temperatures? 16 degrees ABOVE zero, WTF?

but isn't Iceland actually greeny and Greenland is icy. That's basically their national defense program, misleading names.

16 degrees ABOVE zero, WTF?

That's Fahrenheit - which equals -9 in Celsius.

Spencer, you lovely evil man.

Yeah, I only relate to fahrenheit anyway. Still not impressed.

Well, the article does acknowledge that there are colder places. For example: Deadhorse, Alaska. (Is that a great name for a town or what?)
