Americans To Save The Earth: Stop Use Of AC Units?

 Some science group came out and urged Americans to halt the use AC units.  I paused over the subject.

My dad was the first generation in family to have both AC in cars, and homes...plus the Post Office.  I was in the group that had 'some' use of AC (at least after 1977).  Our rural school had a AC unit in each room, but they were determined not to use it because of energy cost and noise.

My Air Force period?  I was shocked in boot-camp.....we had a fantastic modern building. 

Most of my barracks?  I'd say 75-percet had ZERO AC.  

Life here in Germany?  I have a roll-around AC unit and most years....I might run it 12 to 15 days a summer.  This year?  None....it was so moderate.

So I view this urging of Americans to give up their AC....as a lost cause.  You'd have to adapt your clothing style....go to gym shorts....plain t-shirts, and wide use of fans.  Ice coolers loaded with beer?  Yeah.

Asking the Gen-Z folks to give up?  That might be interesting to watch.

Seven Humble Thoughts

1.  People approaching 60, who've had serious panic and anxiety attacks through their entire life....generally find ways to avoid stressful situations or 'pill-up' (medicating themselves).  When they launch into some kind of laugh to relax themselves....it's a self-mechanism to relieve the stress involved.  If this reminds you of anyone....feel free to identify the person.

2.  Just for science reference....E-cars of any type....put out ELF (Extremely Low Frequency) radiation.  At some point....probably ten years down the line...some study will reveal that if you spend more than an hour a day in a E-car....you are dosing up on some fairly negative radiation....causing people to rush out and buy 'reflective' suits to wear while driving.

3.  Rather shocking....summers are hot, and winters are cold.

4.  Just a humble thought....if ABC wrote out their 12 questions for VP Harris....handed them to her, and even gave her a written response to respond with....I'm not sure it'd help.

5.  Before the modern era....you probably had one or two moments of OUTRAGE over your entire life.  Now?  You probably have an OUTRAGE moment every ten days.

6.  There's a Scottish gov't worker....now suing the government....to force them into allowing him to do home-office, period (never showing up at the office).  Reason?  He has a phobia of germs.  He insists his home is the only place where he's safe to be.

7.  Just a crazy thought....the entire construction of the Empire State Building....took 13.5 months.  You plan and execute any plan like this today....it'd take 40 months minimum.
