[Cz-L] Windows of Czernowitz

http://pics.livejournal.com/whasup/pic/00zq04d6

   Because of the cold windows were double.
    The gap had different uses:
   1. To make Sauermilch. You put cups of fresh milk ,not pasteurized,
      on the gap and in a day or so a layer of cream formed and the
      milk was deliciously sour .
   2. In case of thunderstorms there you put cups of water to avert
       lightning.
   3. On days of frost ice flowers formed on the outer panes.
       On extreme cold - on the inner panes too.

        It could be very cold in Czernowitz...
