My ears get cold and they are fairly normal. I don't see any fur on elves ears, so why don't they get cold too?

I am truly rolling on the floor laughing at this one !!
I like Lil Abner's answer but also they work in a sweat shop for Santa. Only Santa goes out in the cold on Christmas Eve.
Maybe Mr. Spock has the answer. It's only logical to ask him since he has the same pointy elf ears..

I'm in my late 60s and have been enjoying the books for some ten years now. So do a lot of my friends and family, and only last night a man my own age told me he had recently - very reluctantly - started on the series as his grandchildren loved them so much. To his amazement he was hooked immediately. Your post is a rant. Of course nobody HAS TO think or believe anything the way you say JKR 'makes' us. You've taken the whole thing far, far too seriously.

THe elves mom hung them up on the clothes line to dry by their ears. That is why they are pointy! Their ears don't get cold because their mom cut the circulation off from the clothes pins.

Small body size. The circulatory system moves warm blood around much more effectively than for regular people.
Besides - most elves have big hearts to begin with.

They DO! Mine are cold as we speak! I asked Santa to have the knitting elves make me some ear muffs, but so far they have not heeded his command!...Heck, it's NOT FAIR!...Rudolph's nose stays warm 'cause it is all lit up, but ME? I gotta fly with icicles dripping from my ears! :-(

They weren't always pointy -- they DID get too cold.
