Frozen cables

What a great idea, a winter cycling forum... So many people think I'm nuts riding in the winter... Anyway, I live in Toronto, and I have a question: last march, I went to a concert one sunday afternoon, the temperature was around -5C, and by the time I get out it was down to -20C! My problem: the lock was frozen (it wasn't fun to de-freeze with a lighter, but I can handle that), but more importantly, my derailleur cables wouldn't move at all! I'm just wondering if anyone has a solution when this kind of problem happens far from home! It might be helpful for next winter...
