SNip Fortunately, I have central air (living in East Texas, that ranks right up there with food in my list of priorities). However, the air conditioning system in an apartment I lived in years ago broke and couldn't be repaired for several days while parts were on order -- during the hottest days of the summer, of course. I bought a large box fan to "tide us over" and would carry it from room to room as I moved from one area or the other to work or sleep. The cat I had at that time caught on very quickly. As soon as I picked up the fan to walk to another room, he would amble in behind me and then stretch out directly in front of the new placement for the fan -- even before it was plugged in! MaryL I live in the SF Bay Area, and the climate here will ruin you for living almost anywhere else in the world. MOST of the time, I can live quite comfortably without Air Conditioning. Most of our heat waves only last three days or so, and then it calms down when the fog rolls in. If I were living in East Texas, or back on the East Coast or wherever the weather doesn't cool off at night, I'd definitely want AC. MElissa |

wish we had just a bit of your warm weather. It has poured with rain for
more than 2 weeks, not one day without rain or thunderstorms. We had one day of 90F two weeks ago and that was it. That was the summer. Not that unusual. We don't often get summers as you know them.

We've had a cool summer here in Finland this year, but I do remember that Flat Cat Syndrome from hotter ones.
