        --Can't use a fan because it'll disrupt gas shield. Thinking of
sticking an air compressor hose up a pants leg or something weird like that.
Anyone got a better solution?? It's going to be 105 today: yecchhh!

Put a fan on the ground behind you, pointing up? Then it'll cool your
back and you'll shield the work from the breeze.

Alternately, consider that a real man would tell the boss to stuff it

Do you need to implement control loops in software?
"Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it
says. See details at http://www.wescottdesign.com/actfes/actfes.html

I wrap a towel around my head, like a turban or a headband, and keep
