  • RealFeel sounds dirty, in a Huxley kind of way. :safe:
  • Please don't buy into the "Real Feel" hype. I hit the ceiling every time an idiot TV weatherman says "... but what it's REALLY going to feel like" or "... but here's the IMPORTANT numbers: the heat index."

    Who are they to tell me what the temperature REALLY feels like? I happen to be very sensitive to heat, and I sweat easily. It probably "feels" hotter to me than it does to a lot of people when the temperature and humidity are high. Someone else might feel cooler than that.

    The actual temperature is a common reference point. Most people know that if it's 92 degrees and humid, it's going to be miserable. Telling them it "feels like" 106 only serves to muddle the issue and give the TV weather clowns something to hype.

    But don't just take my word for it. This article does a good job of explaining the facts, which are basically that the heat index represents how it "really feels" if you're a hypothetical 5-foot-7, 147-pound person walking at 3.1 mph in a 5.8-mph breeze.

    And don't get me started on wind chill.

    That's crazy. How do they stay in business in the summer?

    You could try the cafe at B&N, or Starbucks. They definitely won't kick you out. And you can always head to the movies. :)

    On Huxley's death bed, Timothy Leary read to Huxley from a new translation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead, while Huxley ingested LSD before departing this mortal world.
