Between the time I left the hotel in the morning and when I arrived, probably 30 minutes later, at the work site, the humidity was already awful. Being a California dry-heat guy, I remember opening the car door that first Monday morning after arriving at the work site and feeling like I had just been hit with a bag of bricks. I can't imagine how much it was costing MCD to keep the air conditioning running at full blast in the huge complex all day (and probably all night) long.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('13067','Mark N.'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('13067','Mark N.','Once upon a time, I worked for a company in California that merged with McDonnell Douglas in St. Louis, and as part of a computer system migration, they sent me to St. Louis for a week to help out while they picked my brain about the system to be moved.\r\n\r\nBetween the time I left the hotel in the morning and when I arrived, probably 30 minutes later, at the work site, the humidity was already awful.

I once spent a summer in West Plains, Missouri and thought I was going to die. The humidity was brutal. If Pujols is clean (knock on wood), he'll go down in history as a baseball God.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('13052','Mike Lynch'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('13052','Mike Lynch','Fantastic as usual, Josh.
