[QUOTE="Brownslave688, post: 1161506, member: 34439"] I really think there are a few reasons for us seeing many more heat related incidents than in the past. #1) production. Everyone says oh the old farmers use to work in pants all summer never phased them. They also did 50 stops on an in town route. Now u have guys running 200+ #2) all homes have a/c now. People in general are in a climate controlled area far more than they use to be. I keep my house at 68 80 can be a shock to my system when I walk out the door in the morning. #3) body type. Some people are affected much more by heat than others. My dad is 6'1" 160lbs heat kills him. The man simply has no excess body weight to hold some water. I'm 6'2" 240 I drink a decent amount throughout the day but nothing crazy. Never gets to me. The people I see go down are usually on the two ends of the spectrum. Extremely overweight or rail thin.
