You know, it's funny: first I read Ebony's post about a Great Lakes HPfGU
chapter and pitched into one of my recurrent bouts of elegiac,
I-was-meant-to-be-an-American-itis.

Then, just as I was ready to pack a bag and hike down to the airport, I read
your post, and thought about all the other scorching-melting threads, and
glanced out the window at the beautiful 75 degree weather outside, and
decided that letting myself go native in Switzerland might not be so bad
after all.

Baaaaaa!

Aberforth's Goat (a.k.a. Mike Gray, in a land where heat in the upper 80s
with humidity in the 70s is considered a divine act of unconscionable
cruelty.)
