While it is true that this climate can be daunting, especially in a house
sans central heat, I think the 'move to another climate' bit is highly
overrated.
For example, there are people who move HERE to get an improved climate,
though I can't imagine what advantage they find in this winter cold or summer
humidity.

The three fold path to health as we preach it: whole food, vigorous
exercise, and proper attitude, hugely and overwhelmingly outweighs any
effects there
would be in moving somewhere else. What I find most often in the cases of
'move to a better climate' is that people are doing that in stead of taking
an
active and pro-active role in the improvement of their health.

Of course, we'd have to consider it. But now I view it as a red herring.
