    Except the fact that school has ended and kids out of the open, we look forward a nice summer week, with 35C+ at day and 22C+ at night... (and we are a moderate area, my parents has 40C+ day and 28C+ night forecast) And I was thinking about it... When I was younger (20+) we had no AC and never remember complaining about it, now I can't think of, how to survive without... Or weather got hotter over years or I got older...

      But it's always Summer here, 32c day, 24C night +/- 1. Pity those that have seasons: makes things difficult, all those in-between 'should I bring a jacket or wear my shorts?' - waste of time if you ask me. Everyday same, 1 less thing to worry about as the morning coffee infuses into the brain, dress by autopilot / muscle memory.

      Sin tack the any key okay

        Because 'abundant rainfall' and 'high humidity all year round' is much better... :-D (I try to keep me away from the coast because of high humidity, it is much better in the inland, between the mountains...)

          It is if you're a fun guy :)

          If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

              Maybe you have just gotten more comfy? Not that we have those temperatures here but I remember hot summers, getting in old cars and just toughening it out, windows down and not complaining. Now if the AC is broken in a car you might as well tow it because its useless. ^^ I think a large part is that you adapt to new comfort levels. Same way you adapt to better and faster computers and internet speed. Once isdn was awesome and adsl was the future but nowadays it feels like I'm back in the stone age if I'm not on a fiber connection.
