We thought it would be a nice idea to not just post news, but also help share some human element directly with discussion topics every week or so.

So, first topic of the week: How are you handling the weather? The northern hemisphere is being scorched, many places being over 40 °C for weeks, or even over 50. (50 °C = 122 °F.)

Humans have survived some ice ages and cold periods, but we aren’t well biologically equipped to handle heat for long periods.

    It was a few rough weeks some friends organized some money to purchase fans for those here who can’t afford them to help. Lucky to live near a river where we can cool off but the next two weeks will be cooler
