. . . I almost forgot about all the summers that were _filled_ with days like this.

And about the "inversions" of the 50s and 60s, when the cool air would sit on and entrap the fetid warm air. They'd go on for weeks, everyone sweltering and breathing in the same hot, muggy, rotten, stale air.

AND about how there was little air conditioning anywhere, and no air conditioning on the subways.

AND about how people had to dress up more to go to the office--suits, etc.

AND about how these last 2 days came after much cooler weather.

I'll forget ALL about the above when we have 3 weeks of it.

...my air conditioner packed up and moved somewhere cooler.

But seriously, does it not boggle the mind tht in the wealthiest country in the world we have people dying from a wholly predictable, annual event, preventable with 70-year-old technology. The government should give out a once-every-five-years, one-per-household $100 subsidy for air conditioners. If 100 million americans applied for one, it would cost as much as, what, a day in Iraq?
