In my humble opinion, A/C is part of the problem. Someone once asked Barry Goldwater what it was like to live in Arizona before A/C, and he simply replied, "We didn't know any better." People have managed to survive in AZ for many years before A/C, with ollas, swamp coolers, soaked bed-sheets and oscillating fans, etc.

Nowadays, we rush from our air-conditioned cars to our air-conditioned offices, homes, etc. -- it's no wonder we can "stand the heat".

Mind you, I'm not giving up my a/c anytime soon, just waxing philosophical...
