As to the hot house; I've always read this is why we are so spoiled. Wasn't that long ago that AC was not common in a house. I can remember living in a house with no AC. We has 1 window fan and we would point that outside to make air come in the rest of the windows.
Agree 100%. Give me cold house and a thick comforter and I'll be just fine.
I, like probably a lot of folks here, grew up without a/c. Worse yet, we didn't even have it in our car. None of our close relatives had it., for that matter. So, about the only time I got to experience a/c as a kid was when we went to the mall or the bank or the grocery store. We too put fans in the windows, but it only helps so much. I spent many a summer night in childhood staring at the ceiling, sweat trickling off me as I tried in vain to sleep.
