Except if you are elderly, then it can quickly kill you. Remember in 2003 when nearly 15,000 elderly died from the heat?

I do indeed...it was sobering. I would joke about natural selection and all, since that is my nature, but I will let that go.

BTW, I understood natural selection very well...when I had my first child and wondered why my father, who had five kids, allowed us to stand up in the back of his pickup truck, leaning against the cab, as he drove the highways and bi-ways of the DC suburbs at 70 mph when I was a kid....If I made it through that, I am here to stay!!!
