Also read on F.R. that more and more "upscale" communities are out lawing window air conditioners. When elderly people start dying from the heat, maybe the libs will learn a lesson.

If it's an 'upscale' community, wouldn't they have central air?

My sister lives in an “upscale” area in an old house that never had AC until recently. One bedroom doesn’t have proper duct work, so a window air-conditioner is in it.

Seabury Hgts is subsidized housing overlooking Bell pond on Belmont St. in Worcester Mass. It is part of the Worcester Housing Authority buildings. Years ago we fought the street department in Worcester over the timing of the lights on Belmont St. Elderly walking to church had to cross a dangerous road. The light allowed the poor souls a very short time to get across to the middle island. The Massachusetts drivers honked and edged up on the the canes and walker users. The white crosswalk lines could hardly be seen. They refused to extend the timing for the safety of the elderly. The building at that location on Belmont St. had no AC at that time. I am amazed that Seabury Hgts had AC.

Talking sense around her isn’t allowed. The tools running the gubermint are idiots.

The early heat wave that the NE had was to them, another indication of the arrival of global warming. They aren’t interested that it snowed in Washington state last week too.

Areas that once were known as middle class have been upgraded to “upscale” communities” due to an increase in property taxes.
