Reply #145: I grew up in Dallas when not everything was completely air conditioned.

And I visited relatives in places like Brownwood and Wichita Falls, who had no air conditioning. Nobody was fat. We all ate fried chicken with cream gravy, ham and marbled beef. It was hotter than the hinges of hell and we put on the lawn sprinkler and ran around it...but there was not one obese person in my entire family.
