Sorry for the multiple posts.
Some do like it hot. Never the twain shall meet, I suppose.
What I meant to say is that we need a dry cool place for the Yankees (especially Ohioans) to feel at ease while we ply them with mojitos before we feed 'em to the gators.
ROTFL
Reads like a description of my house!
The Second Law of Thermodynamics says that it is easier to heat something up than it is to cool something down.
Somebody came up with a simple, do-it-yourself air conditioner, for when you have electricity, but no a/c.
You need a waterproof garbage can, a fish tank water pump, some plastic tubing and some copper tubing, small nylon or plastic tie downs, an electric fan and a lot of ice.
You fill the garbage can with water and ice, with the fish tank water pump pumping the ice water into half of the plastic tubing. In front of the fan you have tied down a spiral of copper tubing, with plastic tubes on either end.
And the other plastic tube goes back to the garbage can.
With the pump pumping and the fan on, it cools down the air a lot.
Here is a simple version:

I could give a fig for man’s laws! Our blessed church laws state that excessive heat is the devil’s own barbed, uh, well, it’s evil!
That sounds like the kind of work that would make you sweat. Best to ignore the heat and have a cold beer.
Is this how L. Ron Hubbard got started?
I could use some money. . .
Sister Joan, I think he started by writing science fiction. Then he went on to re-lable and market his fiction as a religion that required a lot of money to participate in. And enough fools bought into his fabrication.
However, yours is a legitimate faith, unlike Hubbard's. I suppose you could make some money off of it. Probably need some celebrities though to help you promote it. I hear that Katie Holmes is no longer into Scientology. Maybe she will be open to joining the First Church of the Blessed Evaporator.
I stand corrected.
Not really. I mis-read what you posted. Let the record so state that ours is not an infallible leadership, but subject to the wise counsel of the converted.
Sounds good!
The heat goes on. Another scorcher in the South. So glad I work inside with a bunch of engineers!
