I remember those years, Jim. No "good old days" for me! I like my
A/C! I'd have to move away, if I couldn't have it.

Years ago, Alan. I first moved here in 1961 and lived in a
little
house in a dumpy town called Pinellas Park -- with fans only.

BTW, Mrs. Gopherhill says that every newcomer to
Florida should be required to live two summers without air
conditioning. After that they could vote and buy a house with
AC.

What a GREAT idea!

Does "newcomer" mean
1. a (wo)man who moved to Florida anytime in the past or
2. a (wo)man who moves to Florida (from now on == starting
today)
or
3. any (wo)man who lives in Florida but wasn't born there?

I'd like to see all those non-natives sweating it out over two
summers. ;-)

That would cut down on the 1000 carpetbaggers a day who are
moving to Florida. I'll suggest it to my friend the Legislator
(who is, alas, a bigshot in the Chamber of Commerce).
