: Don't know about Dana, but I know I AM certainly in your demographic group! Now, geographic is an entirely different sit-chu-a-shun....I don't go where it stays dark for 6 months!!! God, I'd never be able to stand the depression or survive the first winter. Lizzie Borden wouldn't hold a candle to MY bizarre behavior if I was deprived of sun for more than a week.

Hi Bill,
Where I live, we aren't totally sunlight deprived. We have about 5 hours a day in Dec. Of course, if your office doesn't have a window, as neither of mine do, then you have to make a special trip to see it, but it is there. I used to live in Barrow. Now there is a sun deprived town! But even there, the moon and man-made light reflect off the snow enough that you can get around without flashlights/headlights. SAD (seasonal affective disorder)? If I sound grumpy in mid-winter, you'll know why. If you know anyone who sells full-spectrum lights, send him up. There's a big market for them up here.
