I had to smile. When this post opened the ad at the bottom of the page was for Polar Bear Tours, "Visit the Canadian Arctic". Vern

Yep Ed.... Almost ruined my ability to say I have never seen below zero (no threat to the 100F part for a while) here the other night. The airport had -1 but my official record is 3, I'm closer to the ocean.

I guess polar bears like any other animal can become acclimatized to the point they cannot handle the cold temperatures they came from originally.
