Different PICs vary in this regard.  The standard "I" temperature range is
often just from 0-70C or something like that.  Some PICs only come in one
temperature grade that does cover -40C, for others -40C is included in the
"I" grade.  It's your job to look this up and make sure you are using the
right temperature grade.  I was just trying to point out this issue because
it is something you might not have thought about.  For many PICs, the "E"
grade would be required for -40C.

Get used to how email lists work.  I and probably many others here read and
reply to messages in the order they are received.  If I've been away for a
day or more, I might look ahead before answering something, but after only a
few hours I'm not going to bother.  The server also occasionally delivers
messages out of order, up to a hour or so as far as I can tell.

Actually I did answer and have already seen it on the list.  Apparently you
process messages in the received order too.

You missed the obvious, which is all those other things were in response to
message received before yours.

You are never owed a answer here.
