->    Been there!  Doesn't compare.  I've spent many weeks in North Dakota
-> where
-> it's the same way, I just about DIE when it hits 90 degrees there with 
their
-> 90-100% humidity.  I see lots more air conditioning there than I saw there
-> as a child...no, I don't just notice it more now, the homes that were
-> uncomfortable to visit in years ago are now just like Phoenix!
->
Well I know that a lot more houses are air conditioned around here than were
when i was a kid too.  I think it is more in the lines of the systems 
ecoming
cheaper (relatively that is) than anything else.  I don't remember any of my
friends having AC when I was young.  Now everyone does.  I don't think Our
weather has changed that much.
->    Generally, people aren't bothered by it.  Not like all the people who
-> freeze to death in New York.  They go from their air-conditioned house in
-> their air-conditioned car to their air-conditioned office and back home
-> again. When the sun goes down it cools down about 30 degrees or more here 
in
-> the desert.
I don't know of anyone freezing to death here.  I guess that is what is
perceived though from other parts of the country.  NY is the same as AZ in 
your
statement above just replace "Air-Conditioned" with "Heated" and your in NY 
for
the winter!
->    My mom lives about 90 miles north of here, where the temperature is 10 
to
-> 20 degrees cooler.  As a native North Dakotan, she likesthat just fine!
Now that I might be able to survive in.
