Covering your ears and your head preserves warmth, but I didn't know that until I had to go to DC in January to fix a server. It was in the single digits and windy. I knew about wearing gloves, but no one told me that I needed a hat. I had the worst ear ache I've ever endured due to that trip.

I'll tell you this, though. I put on a hat when I was deep into MI, and it didn't bother me NEARLY as much as DC with no hat.
