          Demand is definitely up, given people are freaking out that stations are supposedly going to run out of gas, despite the manager of a station being covered stating otherwise. So of course those of us using the Philadelphia refinery's product have to suffer.

              Yeah, but it's a dry heat... because it's illegal to drink there.

                So here's the thing. I have lived most of my life in humid places where 100 is torture. I've also been in the west in very dry places where 105 is quite pleasant, 110 is starting to push it, and 115 is challenging and you definitely want water with you at all times, and yet it is not at all that gross discomfort of humidity.

                I've always wondered, what happens when you get to 120? Or 125? Does your body start doing weird sh-t? Do you just dry out so fast you need to wear those kegs hats only with water in them? Does it hurt?

                So, what is the hottest you have ever been out in (not in an AC car) for at least 5 minutes? And what is that like?

                Also, when I was in 115 in AZ you could not have paid me to drink -- the thought of alcohol would have been enough to give me get a heroin addict's cold shakes. I completely get why desert people stay away from alcohol -- it's why the Jews stayed away from pre-refrigeration pork. It's a trip to the emergency room before there were emergency rooms.

                            mookie never goes out in shorts. always pants on. not for any reason other than locals do not and as an 'almost' employee of a gov ministry if mookie sees someone who recognizes mookie he doesn't want anything coming back about him. suit to work everyday cause it in the clients office. and to be honest with the low humidity mookie doesn't sweat. last weekend in dubai mookie had shorts on during the day, but when he was out at night he had pants on. very humid there.

                            most mookie walked was 15km one saturday. here there are water stations everywhere and mookie prolly filled up his bottle 14 times (along with stopping at mcdonalds for ice cream cones )

                              You still sweat, but since it's so dry, it's like insta-evaporation, IIRC.
                              Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                                if one can't see it, does it happen

                                or does it just not make a sound
