You may have a point. Maybe Islamic radicalism is due to lack of air conditioning that fries people's brains?
One day this week, it was 106 degrees where I live in Missouri at the worst time of the day. No fun.
I'm a Michigander. I don't like this. Give me two feet of snow and twenty-below-zero windchill and drifting, I'm fine. Take this heat, send it back where it came from, and bring me some good blowing and drifting snow.
Gee, only 20 below. My 4 years in Iowa in the 60’s I saw a solid week of minus 24 to 27, and mid day went up to 20 below, but not when I had to walk to classes at 8 am in the days before it was OK for women to wear slacks instead of skirt. Brrrrr, frostbite of the knees anyone? Then the only summer I stayed there we had a week of 105 to 107 with no AC, and nighttime temps of 93. People were saying, “but dry heat shouldn’t have been so bad.” They weren’t there with the steam rising out of the river bottom and humidity coming off the corn fields. My late husband had come to DC for a scholarship. After we were married he was having trouble finding a job, and wanted to return to Iowa where one was waiting. I told him our marriage would not survive Iowa weather. He finally got a job in DC and then VA, and we were married for 44 years.
At least in the DC metropolitan area we are having night temps of 80 or less, which is a good thing considering how many people have been having trouble getting their electricity back on after the big line of storms last week.
