I will be in San Jose. Nowhere near beaches, and after 8 hours of teaching, my idea of a
"fun time" is to go back to my motel and collapse in an exhausted heap.

I referred to Florida in the summer as 99/99 days: 99 degrees F (that's about 40C for
those of you who use C) and 99% humidity. I've spent a number of awful days in Florida
teaching in the summer. Another downside: in the area I was in, the only restaurants for
milles in any direction were fast-food chains :-(.

Texas in the summer is worse: temperatures over 100F and humidity around 10%. Dried up my
nasal passages and I showed up one morning to teach with a nosebleed that didn't stop
until 11:30am (the joys of blood thinners). And when I taught in Bristol in February, I
got to spend three days sitting in my hotel room watching the rain go by the window
horizontally (50mph, that's 80kph, winds!) and a few months later, in August, I was
teaching in Phoenix, AZ where the perky weather girl cheerfully announced "And the weekend
will be *much* cooler with temperatures not exceeding 115" (that's 46C). Note that I do
not consider this to be *much* cooler. I tried to explain that I should be sent to
Phoenix in February, and Bristol in August, not the other way around...

You have the crocodiles in Florida, haven't you?
It must be dangerous to have baths there :)

Instead we have only irritating jelly-fishes here in South Italy :)

An "exhausted heap"... will it throw a std::bad_alloc or use
E_OUTOFMEMORY HRESULT return value ? ;)

:-)

I think it is E_FLOUNDER_OUT_OF_ENERGY. This will cause an STL error std::floundergone.

This can also be tested using the static function shown below
ASSERT( ! Flounder::IsFlaky());

which, at the end of each day, causes an assertion failure (I fail to assert myself, at
least as far as going out for dinner)
