Wow...how do you survive 5 hours of -50 degree temps?

Great security they must have there at San Jose Airport...

Yeah -50C for 5 hrs I would think you would turn into a solid block of ice?
Maybe they need more funding?

I'll run an experiment today with a -70C temperature controlled freezer and a solution of reference solution.
Well, ran the experiment and within 5 minutes the liquid turned into a solid chunk of ice.
