Summer is better than Winter

Thank you for the quick response, Captain, and sorry for the late reply. On your argument against the mosquito problem, mosquito spray is proven to not work with complete effectiveness and mosquitoes are known to adapt and change their future generations to become immune to the spray no matter how good it is. In both summer AND winter bugs are both inside and outside, but most of the bugs die and don't get in your house by the time winter is here. Examples are mosquitoes, wasps, bees, butterflies, and much more. On your sleep statement, in summer people feel more sluggish and lazy while in winter you sleep BETTER. In summer you are being lazy and laying around or sleeping until noon, which it is VERY unhealthy to oversleep. It is a more even and healthier sleep than in the summer which is very necessary for humans especially teenagers. The third comment you made is invalid because many people enjoy being cold and it is difficult for them to function in the heat. AND many people would much rather warm up with hot chocolate or cider rather than eating a cold Popsicle. The things you suggested to cool down during the summer aren't nearly as effective as the things I have listed to warm up in the winter. It is so much harder to cool down then to warm up. The Fourth thing. For many people, maybe not you, Hot Chocolate, Marshmallows, and Fire really do say it all. The warmth of the flame and the sensation one gets when drinking a hot beverage is much better than the cold rush you get that doesn't do much good. Another thing, you can have Popsicle whenever you want too, and you can eat all the ice you want in the winter, BUT those things always taste and seem better in the summer just as fire and hot beverages seem and taste much, much better during the winter especially after playing one of the many exciting Winter Sports. I don't know about you, but I know many people that are much more likely to roast marshmallows in the winter than in the summer. My neighborhood, for one example, always gets together every year during the winter season to drink that delicious hot chocolate and roast marshmallows over a great bonfire. 1) Proof? I'll be glad to give you proof for your first question. Scientists all over the world call this the Hibernation Factor which many mammals get during the winter, including humans. Here is a link that will take you to a great website on better sleep. http://www.bettersleep.org... It talks all about how people get better sleep in the winter because of this hibernation factor. However, this wanting to sleep and this better sleep is much different than the sleep in the summer which has strange, sluggish, and unhealthy sleeping patterns. Thank you for analyzing my points and asking me a question. Now for your points. (I apologize if I took too much space explaining) 1) Your first point in round 1. More time isn't necessarily a good thing. Most people during summer, especially ones who get school off, spend more time, even on the summer solstice, being lazy and laying around with little or nothing to do. 2) Your second point in round 1. I know of many schools that let people out for three weeks during Christmas break which also allows you to do things you wouldn't normally have time to do. There are so many outdoor and indoor winter activities that can't be done as well or at all during the summer yet most summer activities can be done just as well in the winter only indoors. So, this allows for even more opportunity to do fun things during the winter which there is a more variety of. 3) Your third point in round 1. There are many people who believe the weather is much nicer in the winter than in the summer. (I am assuming that when you said fall you meant winter. That happens to me all the time, so don't stress:D) Again with the outdoor activities. There is a much larger variety of things you can do in the winter. There are many people who spend more time outdoors than indoors in the winter. Another thing, who says the sun is a good thing? The UV rays are causing so much trial and pain because of an increase in cancer. So many people spend time outdoors in the summer only to be burned or become more tan, which tanning has become a popular thing all over the world. Questions: 1) Don't you agree that tanning, which is caused when the many people around the world spend time under the sun, causes serious forms of caner that is extremely unhealthy? 2) Isn't it possible to play summer sports during the winter but not very many winter sports in the summer? Examples are: volleyball, basketball, tennis . . . 3) Isn't it true that in the cold weather it is more comfortable for most people to go running or exercise than in the summer because of the heat? Thank you again for starting this debate, and I apologize even more for the late reply and the length of the reply. I just needed a lot of space to explain myself.
