Sounds sensible.

You live further north than I thought...
#6: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Nov 15, 2012
Talk about strange bedfellows....
#7: Emily Davies (scaramoucheEm) on Nov 15, 2012 [SPOILER]
Eep, I'd take a hurricane over a polar bear! They're ginormous and scary!
#8: Jota (jota) on Nov 15, 2012
Wouldn't it be too cold?
#9: Marie Jeanne (Alleycat) on Nov 15, 2012 [SPOILER]
You can't be cold when you're hugged by a polar bear.
#10: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Nov 15, 2012
But I bet you'd be shaking.:)
#11: Jota (jota) on Nov 15, 2012
Cool!

Hard to find a hurricane in a location that also has a polar bear. (Tom, have you been watching movie ads for "Life of Pi" perhaps?)

looks like a frog and a cat...but ok, polar bear. at any rate, I'd sure as hell hide out if a hurricane came my way!

quick quiz! What color is a polar bear's fur?

if you answered "white", you'd be wrong. polar bears have black skin, and their "fur" is made up of translucent tubes to catch sunlight(and thereby absorb it into their black skin underneath) your fun fact o' the day....
#14: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Nov 17, 2012
cool facts, kurt
#15: Tom King (sgusa) on Nov 17, 2012
I thought black absorbed heat and white reflected it. Thanks for the fun fact, Kurt.
#16: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Nov 18, 2012 [SPOILER]
you're correct....

but the fur isn't white, it only appears white from further away. next time you hug a polar bear, take a closer look...lol
#17: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Nov 18, 2012
Oh, yeah. We'll all be rushing out to hug our polar bears now to check out their fur.:) But, seriously, that's really interesting.

The images don't match the story. However, they are cute images.
