    Extra Summer heat is not an upside.

    Singapore is 90 degrees to a low average of 78 in these last 6 months. They have the Covid 19 infections there to deal with anyway, don't be relying on the heat here.

    Yeah a rolling isolation chamber that regularly needs to stop by a filthy piss lot to be refueled.

    Fuels islands are Petri dishes. First year OTR I was sick constantly until my immune system improved.

    Well, looks like I'm prepared to sizzle then in the event of a refueling choice.

    Yeah but they don't have the weather cycles like we do in most parts of the country.

    People's immune system are subject to more viruses in the winter because their system is also fighting things that are related to the weather changes.

    Yesterday Guv declared an emergency. Last night. First case confirmed.
