PRAISE JEEBUS! A/C is fixed at work.
@LiberalLibrarian I was seven years old and visiting the Empire State Building with my grandmother. We were in the elevator. It was summer. They hadn't invented air conditioning yet, or deodorant. I was nose high to all the men's armpits. It was a long way up. Air conditioning is one of life's miracles.
@LiberalLibrarian It's memories like this one that make me feel a million years old. I doubt many here on CoSo would recall these times or have an appreciation of what it was like to live when people really stank.
@LiberalLibrarian Yes, they were invented. Perhaps I should have said invented but not widely used yet. When I was seven, women were still using perfume and baby powder to cover up odor, and men considered deodorant to be a woman's product.
