  1. PS I donated a multiple of chai (חי) - it means "life" - to the Relief Fund. How could I not? And I then posted the link on my Facebook page.

  2. Merci mille fois for providing context for your trip. The destruction of Lytton was a terrible tragedy. The hottest I've ever experienced was "only" 112 (44.4) in Sacramento many years ago. BTW, our bodies can usually cool themselves when it gets that hot if we sweat because of evaporative cooling. The problem we had in an unairconditioned orderly room on Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio when it got hot was that the fan evaporated all the sweat and we ended up with hot air blowing over us and not cooling us down. Your wet shirt should thus have been able to prevent heat stroke as long as it stayed wet. That said, I was in the Peachtree 10K years ago on the Fourth of July in Atlanta and started feeling chills at about mile 2 so I knew to slow down and walk under the water cannons until I cooled down. When I finished, the medical tent staff threw icy towels on me to bring my temperature back to a safe level. Heat is quite dangerous and I'm glad you realized it.
