Cold. . .

The showers at Alcatraz were the warmest of all prisons so that residents would not become used to cold water and be tempted to swim to freedom.

Cheers, PW.

P.S. When the heater failed at our swimming pool, a few hardy (or insane) people continued using it. The cold water encouraged a faster pace, or at least it did in my case. I'm sure I left a "rooster tail" in my wake.

On a positive note, the pool wasn't crowded.

Simply recalling this still gives me shivers.
