Holli - as miserable as I know it is for you, I heard from Noreen this
morning and her a/c is out.  In Houston.  And they had 10 inches of rain
this weekend.  Can you say HUMID??   For those of you who know how humid DC
is, multiply that by a factor of ten, that's Houston humid.  My Lord I can't
even imagine....
