Well when       its over 115F the heat will definitely kill you, but a flood in the shop       raise the humidity to southern swamp land levels. At only 95 (normally       nice outdoor weather for me) the humidity after the flood was miserable       while I was moving the lathe and fixing the plumbing.       Bob La Londe              ------------------------------       The highest I've acclimated to was 105F when I lived in a drafty and poorly       insulated top floor apartment, really a finished attic. My father's family       is from Georgia and I didn't mind the summer heat there after two weeks. Two       summers ago I was running the sawmill in 95F heat, though under a rain       canopy.              Mom's side is colonial New England. I can also acclimate to cold like them       but it takes a while. I'm not nearly as cold tolerant as the Native       Americans I knew, just pretty good for a white guy. When I was little the       bedrooms were unheated and the house cooled quickly after the last evening       coal fire died. I still heat with wood, the original plus my added       insulation hold the heat much longer.              Now my resting comfort range is low 80's indoors in summer and mid to high       50's in winter. You can have Arizona all to yourself.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
