I know that neither @jasonbell nor @thomas are north of me

thomas07:10:30

morning... still wet here.

thomas07:10:54

for the moment you win in the category northness @otfrom

otfrom07:10:12

Helsinki is about 4 degrees north of Dundee

otfrom07:10:28

this is all b/c I discovered Dundee is north of a fair chunk of Sweden

otfrom07:10:53

it is one of those weird things like Dundee being west of Bristol even though it is on the east coast of Scotland

thomas07:10:18

aahh.. so the guys in Tempere will win the Northness contest I guess.

thomas07:10:36

yes, that is really weird indeed... and New York City is further South as Barcelona.

otfrom07:10:28

or rather, Europe is all very far north considering how warm it is

thomas07:10:41

yes... thanks to the Gulf stream...

thomas07:10:44

and there are theories that it might stop if too much freshwater melts as a result of climate change... which would mean it would get rather cold here in the future.

otfrom07:10:17

that is what I've heard too

ordnungswidrig07:10:40

I’m a little afraid of the gulf stream stopping eventually

thomas14:10:55

if it stop then we do have a very big (and cold) problem in Northen Europe... you shouldn't be surprised to see polar bears in Dundee @otfrom 😉

Ben Hammond16:10:17

heh. Save the polar bears was one of the few Brexit Facebooks ads that I did get shown

Ben Hammond16:10:30

the connection seemed tenuous
