[quote=Anonymous]I was raised in a tropical 3rd world country in Asia. Mosquitos, erratic electricity supply, and intense heat was the reality of our lives. Our work around was - - mosquito nets when we slept, insect screens on windows, citronella creams for our skins, mosquito coils to drive away the bugs, bug spray, long sleeved shirts and pants to protect ourselves from the bugs. - keeping the house cool by airing it out in the morning and keeping the blinds and curtains closed, having ceiling fans on inverters to keep the breeze going and stone floors and brick walls to keep the house cool indoors. - no one went out without being covered well to protect from the sun rays, and we all carried umbrellas to protect ourself from the direct sun rays. It is only in USA I saw red lobster white men running without shirt in the middle of a heat wave. Why? why? Your skin will turn into leather with all this sun worship. [/quote]
