Those of us who are scuba divers use a couple of tricks to keep our masks 
from fogging when the water's cool.  One is to rub a little bit of dish soap 
(Joy, I think, is said to work best -- is this what's known as washing-up 
liquid in Eire?) inside the mask and give a quick rinse in sea water; the 
easier way is just to spit in the mask, rub the saliva around, and give it a 
dunking before putting it on.  These methods both work.

So, just spit on your windshield and dip the Alfetta into the ocean for a 
quick rinse and you're all set!
