I was thinking more on the line of 140, indicating what almost 25 years away will do to a person. I recall taking saunas in temps approaching 160 back in the day. Tales of our elders lead to 180, with vihtas(?) and steam. And what is a sauna without steam? A hot room that smells like sweat(or worse). Never tried the custom of sauna to snowbank w/o a change of clothing. However, in areas lacking a/c, a good hot sauna does prep you for a better night's sleep. 120 is a nice introductory temp for MFC and the broodlings.

Ninety-three in a sauna generally means that someone forgot to put a fire in the stove. The sauna is nice at about 120 degrees or so.

MFC couldn't agree more on 72 for everything but the beach. My favorite: Depends on the humidity. At 93, yes. Both San Antonio and Honolulu proved to be acceptable in the mid to upper 90's. Barksdale AFB and Mobile were unbearable at or near the same temperature. 103? Fuhggetaboutit. Sucks the energy and drive right out from ya. Womenfolk tend to keep their distance due to the tendency of unacclimated Finns to sweat profusely. For a bedroom, yes. A sauna, no.
