That's a bit dangerous though...put onions in the fridge for about an hour prior to chopping them. This slows the chemical reaction that causes the crying.
Do all the peeling & chopping first, leaving the root on for as long as is onionly possible to delay any tears.

butif you're in a hot kitchen they'll warm up again quick sharpish.
much better to put your eyes in a fridge whilst chopping, keeps 'em cool and fresh the whole day
