Fortunately, I live in an old (as in, 3-century-old) house, and back in these time they build houses with 1/2 meter thick walls, tiny windows, and generous caves. Inside it's fresh and bearable.Outside, I curse the awful sun and the barren sky. Where are the clouds, damnit! We've got no real rains for two months. The last two days, I've seen smoke and flames from forest fires from my own home. Fortunately, they were both extinguished quickly by our firefighters. As I type this, I'm hearing the sound of another canadair flying by, high over my roof. Never before have we seen so much firemen activity in our vicinity.The good thing, however, is that both our sources are steady and flowing. We, at least, will avoid draught -- for now.I've heard in Italy, the river Po had totally dried up some days ago. I havn't heard, however, if it's flowing back or is still dried.</blockquote>
