[Avodah] Al petach beito mabachutz

[Michael Kopinsky]

Is cold really a reason not to light outside?  I mean, we all bundle
up in our coats and manage to make it to the car, and then from the
parking lot to work - does it take that much more time to go outside,
place your already-prepared menorah in its box, and light the candles?
 I mean, cold can make it difficult, but sakanah?  This is not quite
like sleeping in the sukkah, where there exists a much more
significant concern.

(Unless, of course, you're saying that the neros won't light, or won't
last 30 minutes in the freezing cold.  If so, I stand corrected.)
