Bad idea? I thought it was good to warm it up once a month during the winter to keep the seals moist.

As long as you bring it up to full operating temperature, it shouldn't be a problem.
Don't start it just to start it, you'll create condensation which will do more harm then if you just left it alone.

The same can be said for women, bring them up to full operating temperature and keep them moist!

I hear you TD. Today I called up the youtube vid of mine on the dyno and watched it twice. Plan ahead for next winter-- throw a vid on you tube and you can listen to it every day!
