Concur. However, because it's Friday:
A buddy of mine works for one of the oil companies and therefore travels periodically to Houston. He keeps pestering me about seeking patent protection for a wonderful invention he's thought of, which he calls a "pool cooler."
Though sadly sketchy on the details to his invention, he has observed that of the backyard pools in Houston (of which there are apparently many), the summer days are so hot and so long that the pool water becomes -- well -- warm as bathwater. He is convinced that finding a solution which keeps a poolfull of water cold, or at least pleasurably cool, in Houston alone will make him fabulously wealthy.
He has rejected my suggestion of simply opening an ice company and making about 1/4 poolfull ice deposits on a weekly basis.
Gatti(e/o et al, perhaps I can come visit in the fall. The
late fall)gap
