Sounds a lot like phoenix, except for the corn and snow... And it's not usually muggy here, just that oven blast as you step out of your air conditioned space...
Well that explains why my job just expects me to know it without any warning... I'm almost 50, I have no problem learning new things if you tell me I need to, but when I was in school, computers were still luxuries...
There will always be tech un-savvy people who prefer to pay for something (and have someone to call when it doesn't work) than have to spend 5 minutes learning how to do it themselves.
I live in the Phoenix area. Every summer, as it starts to heat up (so like april...) you start seeing the tire debris everywhere, and the higher frequency of cars pulled over with flat tires... Heat is absolutely a factor in premature tire failure, whether or not the rubber is literally melting.
Those of us born in the 70s... Doing anything with a computer required knowing at least a little programming, so we learned at 8 years old, then when we got to high school/college, we were taught by people who knew nothing about programming because they were already old and didn't think they needed to learn anything new...
