**Rasa** , just a suggestion, but climb up and SHUT THE VENT!! 🙂 Get a chair and someone to steady it for you. If you can’t do that, call your manager and have him/her do it. If that doesn’t help, call maintenance and yell at them.

There’s no need for you to sit there and work under miserable conditions.

But Freyr, whatever would I bitch about if I did that? 😉 Actually, the vent has stopped its icy emanations. So now it’s just residual cold. 45 more minutes then I’m going home and throwing on my warmest, toastiest clothing. 🙂

You do know that the best way to keep warm and avoid hypothermia is getting naked with another person and wrap up in blankets and such.

I shall offer my services if need be.

fnord…thanks for the offer. Rasa already has someone to warm her, but if said person becomes unavailable, I will consider your…actually, no I won’t.
