Do you guys have some super human ability to stay warm cause I am scared to camp out the cold it gets. Any tips? lol besides drinking more or body heat

As long as it stays above 32 degrees Fahrenheit, your body can eventually adjust to your surroundings so that you're actually quite comfortable, provided you are physically healthy, well nourished, and not a little bitch. This is why I am able to stay nearly naked all the way until last weekend. And honestly, it's pretty damn rare it get any where near the 30's during Faire season. So, no reason to be concerned, just grow some balls...and then maybe some hair to keep them warm. 

Mind over matter. And blankets for sleepy time, also someone to snuggle with at night. Hats. Gloves. And as Nearly suggests: HTFU.

Naked, I'm sorry. But... your information is very flawed and very inaccurate. The human body can fall hypothermic (body temp below 95.5) in 50 degree weather. It's easily avoidable in anything above freezing, but to say the body automatically adjusts is... well, wrong.

But I digress.

Joy; blankets, long sleeves, coats, NOT SLEEPING DIRECTLY ON THE GROUND, and fire (at least three feet away) are good starters. I feel the need to specify the fire issue, as people have been known to fall in.

Devin, you always put my mind at ease when you school them on science. I'm always cold, especially out at faire. Hot hands shoved into every pocket plus three layers of clothing usually works for me.

*BUZZZ* Thanks for playing, but I'm afraid the answer is: mammals, such as we, are warmblooded, and therefore are able to automatically regulate their internal body temperature through their own metabolic system, and can thus sustain a fairly constant body temp, despite their external environment. This is why I can comfortably run around all night in 45 degree weather wearing nothing but boxers and boots, ie last year when I got stripped on a walk-about.

My friend, you may be a damn fine EMT, but biology is my thing.

I'm fairly certain that if you were to go topless, we'd all stay much warmer.

snuggle with someone.

First of all Imperfectly, if you need I can keep you warm! Next, when you sleep, Don't wear all your clothes that you were in the cold in. Lay down a layer of fur or fake fur if you are a tree hugger, over an open sleepingbag, that will hold in heat better than clothing will. Next do not place a sheet over you first, instead use something soft that will make a thicker layer right against your body. After you place all your covers on you the top layer is best if it is a wool or even canvas, something to hold in the heat. If you are sleeping alone use a small airmattress. The ground will make you colder and a large air mattress will not stay warm if you are the only source of heat. None of this is science or can be proven by my medical research but I have been doing this a long time and this is what workes best for me. I still say my first idea was my best idea but if not just keep in mind that if you girls would just masterbate before going to sleep is will raise your body temp and then you will stay warmer longer! Even if you don't, then just let me have the illusion that you will listen to me and all us guys will stay warmer! No that is not how I go to sleep because as the guys will tell you, cold hands and erections don't mix. On that note......... Ok Devin, you can start grading my paper now.

Your points and recommendations are very sound and throughly accurate.

Just stay up till sun comes up and get a sleeping mask.  Must keep drinking till sunrise to keep heat in.

AND LET WIFE SLEEP OR ELSE SHE WILL END YOU!!! 

I love your devil eyes! why wouldn't it work on the ravers?

Actually, you're partially right, and while you may be comfortable at 45 degrees, it doesn't mean that every mammal has the capability of adapting to that low of a temperature. For prolonged periods of time, say 10 PM to 6 AM or so, it's actually not healthy to expose yourself to temperatures in which your body is forced to divert blood from the peripheral tissues and use it solely to keep internal organs warm.  Also, biology is MY thing.
