I have lived in the southeastern section of this country since I was various years old, plus I have never lived without air conditioner.
Since I am relatively young, compared to the aging population that is, I have only known a few people who have ever lived without cooling system.
One of them was our Aunt Bet. At the time, I was truly young, so I didn’t give it much thought, really, despite the fact that I did consistently suppose that it was no fun going to see Aunt Bet because it was consistently so darn hot in her house. When any of us would go over there, though, she would consistently drage a box fan out of the closet plus plug it in. Also, she would pull the cord on the ceiling fan plus get that running, as well. Aunt Bet was our mom’s sister, plus she had honestly no air conditioner in her house. If I provided it any thought at all, I assume I just figured she didn’t need air conditioner. She seemed easily old to me, plus all the people knows that old people have no oil furnace inside so they are consistently cold. Imagine not wanting or needing air conditioner? I can’t even go without cooling system in our car! It wasn’t until various years later that I finally figured out that our uncle was in an abusive relationship. She wasn’t allowed to have heating plus cooling, she wasn’t allowed to have a license, plus she didn’t even get to do the grocery shopping. That also explained why our mother never liked Aunt Bet’s wife. That was a upset situation.
