FB has been blocking me of late in very innocent posts.  I presume their AI is wonky.  I once tried to share a post already posted and was blocked, and warned.
Maybe you spilled wine on the keyboard again

Probably.  I had no alcohol last night, which is good for me (no alcohol that is).  I'm going for this week, hopefully.

Trying to drop a few pounds, swimming/running/lifting every day.

I covered 3 miles today, running and walking, I sweated up a good bit but the temperature is not bad, 85°F right now.  I'm still amazed how much even a slight breeze can make a difference.

Humid air is less dense than dry air.

Wasn't one of the Braves' stadiums nicknamed "the launching pad"?

Old Atlanta-FoCo Stadium, the first one, was nicknamed that.  At the time, it was the highest altitude major league stadium (before Denver came in).  And of course it gets hot and humid here, usually when it approaches 100°F it's less humid.

I attended an Olympic baseball game in that stadium in '96 with my kids.  There was a strong breeze blowing into the stadium at the entrances where we kept getting up and standing in the air, it was 99°F that day.  

I wanted my kids to have an "Olympic experience" but couldn't afford the major events, so we attended a slew of minor ones, including rowing on Lake Lanier, sitting on aluminum bleacher seats.  The sculls were tiny specs for much of the race.

How TF is it only 85 in Atlanta ?  I thought the climate there was very similar to Houston. It’s probably 95+ here today. In the shade !

I've been to Houston in August a few times, it's MUCH hotter and more humid than ATL.  Our average high T in August is 88°F.  It's 90°F now, I was just at the pool doing laps.  We were in a project with Shell Chemical for a while.  I've even seen a baseball game at the Astrodome.  I liked going there in February.

Well, I just looked at a map and I feel silly.  Atlanta is actually a lot further North relative to Houston than I would've guessed.  It's actually further North than even Dallas.  I have never been further east than the very west end of MIssissippi so I really don't have a feel for that area.  For some reason somebody always referred to it as "Hotlanta" so I just assumed it was akin to what we call "Hot-town" for Houston.
