Wow how ignorant does it sound that I honestly never thought that temperatures reached that high and killed that many people back then. I guess really I’m just self centered enough that I’m sitting in my house in front of my hpc3000 ac unit and just trying to keep cool myself in 104′ weather. I’m blown away thank you for sharing this is unbelievable.
