He is wrong tho, natural substances can and are regularly patented when a use is found for them or a production method that’s better is discovered.


I think my earliest one was going to the doctor once when i was like 2 years old, I know it happened before dad came back from the US and that was when I was 2 and I also have memories of that day.


I think coldest was -18°C during the coldest winter we’ve had, curiously it didn’t even feel that cold when walking outside but that might be because there was no wind and you started feeling the coldness inside you instead of outside.

Hottest is I believe around 40°C but that one’s not as crazy so I’m not really sure of the actual figure, probably higher or lower by a small amount of degrees.


I live in Chihuahua, Mexico, where it usually means dry heat so pretty much anything works but it also means you can use a thing called swamp coolers that pretty much just increase humidity by humidifying air and shooting it quickly. They are incredibly efficient.

Sad part is when it gets humid (in monsoon times) it really doesn’t sufice, so an AC is required or just remove as much clothing as possible.

Clothing does help a lot with dry heat, you can use thin fast-drying clothing and that helps evaporate sweat which takes away most heat. Again in humid heat you really can’t cool unless you dehumidify with an AC (which is incredibly efficient the more humid the area is, and can be inverted to be used as heaters for much cheaper than gas or normal resistive electric heaters).

In the UK I think your best bet is a reversible heat pump.
