Antipodean DUers: Remind us of what summer is like!
Does the temperature ever rise above freezing? Does a breeze ever feel good, rather than cutting through you like a knife? Does the sun actually do something besides rise, set and hide behind clouds?

1. Sat by a pool in Argentina last week
nothing like the sound of mourning doves and wind rustling the leaves of poplar trees....

95 degrees and dry. Lovely.

3. They're what you do when you go someplace...

6. Horribly high
Sweat only gets you wet. And sticky. And stinky.

I hop from air-conditioned room to air-conditioned room to keep myself alive. But the movement from one place to the other is the killer.

7. I think I vaguely remember what that is like.
I vaguely remember not liking it. But I vaguely remember that it didn't hurt the way winter hurts.
