Default Lack of Seeds~Weather Related?

I have a tomato in a large container that I've been bringing in at night, since last fall. The first few tomatoes I picked last week had no seeds at all. Would this be due to colder temps at pollination time? The daytime temps were above average in January (85) but much colder since (down to '40's at one time...'50's, '60's since)

A true Mountain State survivor, I presume???

Isn't this weather related seedlessness called something like polycarpeltunnel syndrome or somethin'?

Well, that's the funniest error code message I've seen! And every time you click, you get a different message.

Ha! That error page thingy is a hoot! By the way I had the same problem with no seeds in my maters last year. I believe I discussed it seral times at that "other" place...I think my reason was from our temps being way too friggin hot here. Though I highly doubt this time of the year that that is your problem!

Edit- Hmmm...I did not write blasted I wrote frigg-in! Mighty tight on the potty mouth around here!

Edit: Whoops ... hmmm ... well, when I get to the office, I'll try to see what happened to Dr. Baggett's bio Web page.

Oh, and Rose, next time try "freakin'" or "phriggin'" instead.
