Lol.  I did put a piece of cardboard in the window behind the slatted 
blinds with a gap at the edges.  That sort of works, but I think trying 
to get an air draft to follow a gutter sideways to a downspout would be 
a trick.

Another thing I thought of was to use the plastic window kits to make an 
airspace and just blowing air through it with a fan.  That would make 
all the cold come out at the other end and with the air moving a bit 
faster than the draft, it wouldn't be cold.  But I don't want to hear 
the durn fan.  I guess I could use one that is very, very quiet.  But 
that's too mechanical of a solution and the plastic is not very pretty. 
When I am done my window radiator will actually look pretty nice.
