What do you think? Do you think it would be as easy for someone to take care of your affairs if you were out of commission from 2000 miles away as it would be if they were next door? Some things, like doing a financial transaction online, it might not matter. But if it's entering your home, getting into your safe deposit box, taking some legal action on your behalf, then it matters a lot. |

But if the close person is not trustworthy, it will matter even more if they do something you wouldn't want them to do... |

There's always the classic Zippo handwarmers: https://www.zippo.com/pages/hand-warmers I have a couple of the refillable ones - a couple ounces of lighter fluid and they stay warm all day.

Using a zippo lighter is a good reason to start smoking again. When the hinge broke I sent it back. They sent it back with the old case with a repaired hinge and new guts and a little homily about living a good life or something. > I have a couple of the refillable ones - a couple ounces of lighter > fluid and they stay warm all day. (No experience with the rechargable > electric ones.) The single-use ones go on the back of your hand, which doesn't seem useful. At least I assume that's how they work, my current ski gloves have a little zipper pocket on the back. -- Cheers, Bev "By the time they had diminished from 50 to 8, the other dwarves began to suspect 'Hungry.'" -Gary Larson |

Not so good for space heating (basically, what they light they heat) and the 'bulbs' blow after a while. Just had one go after maybe 1000 hours, and they don't look to be user replaceable. Mind, there's 2 left :-) -- Cheers, Rob |
