While that may work fine 'over there' John it can have disasterous results
in Iowa in January such as turning a harmless little pit in your windshield
into a big long crack. If you're going to deice your windshield with water
it should be tap water cold and don't do it at all if the temperature is
below -10.

The main problem I find is I have to leave mine to warm up for a bit,
otherwise I can't see out of the window!

Take a 2 litre coke bottle and fill it with warm water. Running that
over the windows is the quickest way to clear them and won't cause
scratching :-)
