After 3 years I finally got my first dent...
HaRuMaN:
Could have a vacuum hose loose/cracked?

By defroster, do you mean the rear defroster, or having your air set on "defrost"? The two are completely unrelated.
ChadTower:
The one using the same vents as the heater. Not the rear window defroster that is attached to the window. The blowing defroster heats up the cabin just enough to deal with. On the really cold days I wear gloves. Without that defroster working I wouldn't be able to drive it in the winter here because the windows would keep icing up.
shardian:
Hmm, it appears you might have a bad heater resistor if you get heat on defrost but none of the others. Check your Chilton Manual to see how hard it is to replace the 1st resistor. Also, locate your heater core and check the inlet and outlet hoses after the car is running warm. If both are not hot, get your system power flushed. Also, your car is probably due a thermostat change.
Thermostat is cheapest and easiest fix, so try that first.
ChadTower:
I'm pretty sure I've had the thermostat replaced in the past... if it's the same thermostat that controls engine temp.
