hey!  i'm getting all sweaty just reading all this, but i do not think i'm
getting cool?  oh yeah that was the early 70's.  like cool man.

so like if it is umm, lets say,98 degrees and high humidity and  i am in my
drivers suit and sitting in my sprite at the start line 6 cars back at
giants despair hillclimb in wilkes barre pennsylvania in the sun  straped
tightly in the car waiting for the state police to calm down the avid
beverage consumers up on the turn known as devils elbow (who frequently get
a bit out of hand while enjoying beverages and cheering on the racers),
then i am suposed to be activly enjoying my warm weather diet plan known as
sweat untill you pass out or realise you are dehydrated too late *again*.
dehydration is my biggest problem wearing a drivers suit baking in the sun
in an open cockpit car.   by the end of a day i end up soaked and extremly
hot.   peeling off soggy nomex is no fun!  but wow! do i get the chills when
bare skin hits the air even in that high humidity and heat on the way back
to my jeans and t shirt and sneakers.

so that means that the human body is an extremly complex heat exchanger and
while doing a teriffic job requires an extreme amount of maint. to keep it
from breaking down.

life is just too complicated !  i think i would rather just work on cars.
they seem to apreciate what i do for them .  they told me so!*  those pesty
voices again*  must.......fix........cars............LOL!
