   That all depends on your perspective. We don't have the humidity of living   
   next to the Gulf like you do. Most of our temps are higher, but the   
   humidty is much lower, making the climate easier to live with. When we get   
   a south flow (air flows from the south) of weather, we get the humidity   
   that goes with it. But, we almost always get an western or north western   
   flow, which doesn't carry the humidity like you would find in Dallas and   
   parts up north.

   That would be nice. Can't find any all petrol gasoline around here...

   We have the option of swiping the card and then answering the question;   
   Credit or Debit. If credit, they ask for your zip code if debit, they ask   
   for your pin. Then they ask questions like, do you want to add a car wash   
   to your purchase, or a gasoline additive for more fuel economy, yes or no.   
   Finally they ask, would you like a reciept? I always answer Yes in every   
   instance on the receipt...then, after your card is approved, they tell you   
   to lift the pump handle and select the grade of gas you want. Wait a few   
   seconds and the selected fuel numbers change to all zeros and you're ready   
   to pump...
