I've thought of that very thing myself. We had an energy audit (or whatever
they call it...) done, where they IR'd our home, they created a positive
pressure inside the house, etc. and we came out pretty good. But - when
that old wind howls, it can just flat out be hard to keep the old homestead
warm at 20 below zero - without wind chill crap figured in. Screw the
"effect" or the "feel" of wind chill, but the truth is that wind takes
radiated heat away faster than no wind does. Gets mighty chilly at times...
