You bet! And what was worse was that I was deducting 60 seconds per plot instead 
of 45, due to the cumbersome fumbling with my sleeping bag, gloves, etc. So 
every time I saw a meteor, instead of thinking "Cool!", I'd be mumbling under my 
breath "D**N! There goes another minute in the cold!". Certainly changed the 
nature of the experience for me... :(
