So I found out at the beginning of this heat wave that my central AC unit died apparently recently. So I have weathered the current heat/humidity without any air conditioning whatsoever. I have a number or two to call for a new unit but I actually like opened windows and fans.

Since the heat and humidity don't bother me much - I don't know that I will even replace the unit. Except a few friends do visit or stay over at times and would definitely be more comfortable with AC.

How many of you are living successfully without air conditioning? I never lived anywhere with AC until I was about 32 years old when I had it installed at my house in Detroit.
