What does a cloud feel like to the touch?
March 20, 1992
Dear Cecil:
What does a cloud feel like to the touch?
Cecil replies:
Like a funeral director's handshake, B.P.--cold and clammy. But why are you asking me? Chances are you've already felt a cloud. It's called fog, which is nothing more than a cloud at ground level.
