when I was little and we drove from California to Alabama to visit grandma we drove at night until we got through Texas, no car A/C.
Ha!
Looks like the inevitable has transpired….

Debris from Titanic found.
When we moved from Wa. to Ca. I was 19. We had a little Studabaker Lark. 2 kids, 1 cat and a dog. We stopped at a little town in Ca. to get the kids Snow Cones to cool off some. Not thinking about the sugary drizzles all over their faces and the cat shedding. The kids looked like they had grown beards. When we got to Redding it was 115 and we stopped at a motel and begged the manager if we paid a few dollars could we please use a room and then let the kids get in to pool to cool off and clean up. The manage was so kind to let us do that.
From article; “Some experts have speculated that it could have suffered a catastrophic implosion as a result of a hull failure.”
That was my first thoughts. Do you know if this was it’s maiden voyage?
I think this was its third voyage.
Ha! I remember those little wing windows in cars! I also remember the days before air conditioning, although we rarely reach steady days of 100 degrees. The odd day here or there is about it for us. I do remember, as a child, that top floor bedroom with the angled ceiling being really hot at night. Sleeping was often difficult, and wet lol. We all lived through it, though.
I have a theory about air-conditioning (as much as I love it). I thought about the toxins in the body, and how they surely would have been released every summer without air-conditioning. People used to drink gallons of water and sweat like crazy. As uncomfortable as that may have been, it sure would give your system a flushing. Nowadays we go from air-conditioned house, to car, to stores, to work (if indoors), back to car, and home again. We rarely spend any time outside unless we have to, if it’s really hot. That has to have some effect on the body.
Well, that’s my theory, but ask me if I have my a/c on when it gets hot lol! At least it has to be pretty warm before I use mine - at lease high 80s inside the house. I’m fine with the wind blowing and ceiling fans.
” I’m fine with the wind blowing and ceiling fans.”
There are quite a few times when I would be fine with that especially at night with a window open. BUT I live in a residential neighborhood with LOTS of houses and in the early morning when they start up their cars I get the fumes coming into the bedroom. :-(
“I think this was it’s third voyage.”
According to this video that I am watching now he says it was it’s FIRST DIVE. The man talking was friends of two of the people on the vessel. It had gone out for maiden runs but apparently NEVER actually dived at least not very deep.

Oh yes, that would be awful. I have lived near a busy city corner briefly - it can be very noisy and smelly. I had a stoplight nearby and I remember noise from traffic, cars with loud music blaring, revving of engines, horns, tires, etc. I didn’t stay there long, but it was awful.
I’m so sorry. I had to buy a portable swamp cooler for my bedroom but I’m glad I did.
Thanks for sharing. People these days don’t know what we went through.
When I was young I did spend time outside, but harder. its uarder
Thanks for the update and link, Jane.
I had a feeling it never made it down to the bottom before imploding.
The engineer that was hired by the CEO said they needed a new glass viewport at the front of the sub, as the one that was installed was not rated for the 12,500 foot depth they were going to be at. So, the CEO fired the engineer.
It is felt now that the sub imploded on its way down, at the time they lost contact with it.
If so, that means death was instantanteous. They were dead before they knew what happened to them.
It reminds me of the sinking of the USS Thresher in 1963. All that was left was crushed pieces of fragmented metal.
I knew a person who was a plank holder on the USS Thresher. He was part of the sub’s original crew during shakedown of the sub. He missed the maiden voyage because of his wedding.
I grew up without air-conditioning.
Summer nights were the worst. Hot, humid, windows open to street with all the noise of people, cars, animals. Later in my teens, I had an oscillating fan in my bedroom.
I vowed that when I grew up, my house would have central air.
And every house I ever bought had it.

BREAKING 🚨 IRS whistleblowers reveal WhatsApp messages wherein Hunter Biden sought payment from Chinese officials. Due to evidence being at then-VP Joe Biden’s home, US Attorney Lesley Wolf said a search warrant would not get approved. Attorneys for Biden were told prior to a search of a NoVA storage unit, providing ample time to remove any incriminating items. In March of 2022, Delaware US Attorney David Weiss tried to bring charges in D.C. and was denied. Weiss was then denied two more times; once by the DOJ and then in the central district of California.

As IRS criminal investigators prepared an affidavit for a search warrant on a storage unit Hunter Biden used to hide his business records, AUSA Lesley Wolf objected. When U.S. attorney David Weiss overruled her, she alerted Biden's legal team, giving them time to vacate the unit.
Drip, drip,drip.....and then a flood.
More revelations every day about how everything in DC is completely compromised.
