I'm sorry for the sarcasm, but I think one of the reasons we have so many kids passing out in the heat now a days at events like this and on football practice fields is because they don't spend enough time in it thanks to video games and TV. Sure, we had Atari when I was growing up, but we spent alot of time outside.

Conditions in the area were truly extreme today. Sure, we had Atari when I was growing up, and I played outside constantly in the summer, but on the 1-2 literally worst days (99 degrees+ with high humidity) I sure as heck spent the day inside.

Sounds like a typical summer day in my neck of the woods, but I understand where you are coming from up there with the hear. That is just like a below freezing day down here when everybody bundles up like it's the second coming of the ice age.
