    The burka also has insulative properties, thanks to the same air pockets that give it cooling properties.

    Oh, yeah...the Middle Eastern folks who wear the voluminous robes have got the right ticket...it does help to cool you off better than almost anything else. I worked on a movie shoot once and spent too much time in the hot Wisconsin sun...I went out and found a white sheet and fashioned a rather smashing psuedo-burnoose out of it and was quite comfy there after. Drove everyone else batty..."..aren't you too hot in that?"..."...hell, no...".

    ...felt like bloody Peter O'Toole in "Lawrence of Arabia" though...kept looking around for a train to dance on top of.

    Best
