Chuck - I wasn't questioning anything. I, too have had some excellent observing in winter (I just don't do it as often any more - maybe I've become a bit of a wimp.) I believe all your statements are true. I just remember blanket statements from my high school physics and college astronomy classes that wintertime observing was generally more turbulent. I haven't found that this was necessarily true for me.
