Gianna Stefanni expressed strong views for someone who chooses to live

you have successfully missed the whole point.
Collecting the data, analysing them and identifying patterns in them IS
the interesting point.


I expressed a view ... not sure that I did so in a way that would
classify it as a 'strong' view.

I do indeed live here from choice. There were several key factors in
making that decision. One of these was the warmth, kindness, and
generosity of the indigenous population, while another was ... the
weather. I spent many happy hours researching the averages for the last
30 years, as well as (then) current data, before leaping into the
housing market. I particularly remember coming to view my present
habitat ... a fleet of fifteen gritters and snow-ploughs were fighting
to keep the A90 open during a blizzard(that is one vehicle for every 2
miles or so) as I drove up from Aberdeen ... various vehicles had
slithered off the road and down banks into fields. Happily mine was not
among them.

Much the same as northern Italy then ... home from home.
