I have a theory as to why Southern Californians think 78 is "hot" and 69 is "cold." They're here for the weather, right? That's why they put up with the smog, traffic, parking tickets, lousy public transit, high gas prices, high prices on everything else (unless they're from San Francisco, Boston, or New York), the recall election, the possibility of a 9.0 earthquake that will send the state into the sea, and being the butt of almost as many regional jokes as New Jersey. If they're going to put up with that, they figure (consciously or subconsciously), the weather had damn well better be absolutely perfect.

Or maybe they're just wussies.
