When did AC become a necessity of living? It was non existent at one time and people lived comfortably. Why do they die from a lack of it now?Well, the persons who are now 95 years old and completely dependent upon modern technology to stay alive would not have lived that long back then.

Are you so completely out of touch with reality as to not realize that refrigeration is probably the single largest boon to civilization along with the internal combustion engine, electricity, antibiotics, and surgical anesthesia? Without these five things, life would be unimaginably dirty, painful, uncomfortable, expensive, dangerous, limited, and short.
