I was well aware of the issue of cooling (what do you think the primary rant of the source was about, and I've dealt with Oklahoma heat: I don't want to try to handle that plus gulf humidity.

The permit hurdles for the wells look nasty. If low power use was popular, it wouldn't be too hard to get developers to dig a few as a utility in a development. Of course, you would need to still be building developments. I was quite irked to see condos going in nearby and *knowing* that nobody would think of doing anything like that.

I got through most of August (but not July) without AC. I think the good people of Maryland can forgo AC if we can roll back one of the worst disasters in US history: AC in DC.
