7. It's really hard to breathe...

Once it gets around +110F and above it only gets worse.

3. We had a heat index

in the 120's last summer. This is a real temp. I can say, working outdoors and trying to keep old horses alive was really hard. I cannot imagine that as the real temp.

Good lord we are in such a lot of trouble.

4. I'll just leave this right here. Those of you who've read it know exactly what I'm referring to

5. That was exactly what I thought of

Although I appreciated the message of that book, I thought it was terrible. A real slog to read. I find him to be a very overrated writer.

9. I like his Mars stuff more

I fear it may be horribly prophetic tho

6. Thanks.

I think I am going to check that out with my next Amazon points.

Not pleasant I assume but I do love dystopian fiction especially with a lot of truth thrown in.

8. Better writer, but a far more depressing conclusion . . .
