Oh okay, that kind of makes a little bit more sense to me, what you say about Germany, because as you know I was born at Osnabruck and lived in Germany and Scotland (both lots of clouds) until I was close to 10 years old... then 2 years in Ireland as a teenager, also cloudy... and Newfoundland is quite cold and dreary too. So maybe what you've grown up with makes a difference. I just know I feel weird because most people say they like the sun and heat. Or maybe it's hereditary. Dad (Jim) likes it overcast too.
