for someone that breaks out in hives...swells up something awful, skin turns red and itches like crazy....on any exposed skin when faced with sudden cold.....yeah its a big deal.
Fortunately living in Atlanta it doesnt get cold enuff for that to happen to me that often...but it does happen...and a few minutes is all it takes.
anybody ever wonder if the "sicknesses" that some smokers have are a direct result of having to deal with the the elements to go outside and smoke?

I see what you're saying, but you have to understand that there are many nonsmokers who suffer the same problems as you when they are exposed to smoke.
I don't mean to sound dismissive, but from where i sit up here in minnesota, your reaction to cold air is the exception rather than the rule. I think for the majority, going outside to smoke would amount to no more than annoyance. I don't think the sicknesses smokers suffer result from having to deal with being outside since A) most smokers don't have to go outside to smoke, and B) There is a good portion of humanity that is outside a great deal more than your average smoker who don't suffer the same sicknesses as smokers.
