MicroClimate
I promise I'll catch up with blogging this weekend, when I should have time away from a job with (knock on wood) a working computer. But in the meantime, let me explain one slight issue I'm having with Hong Kong: humidity and air conditioning.
The air conditioning system in the building where I'm living is, to say the least, active. At even the medium setting, it keeps my room so cold I feel I need long sleeves. I have no idea who designed this much air conditioning.
Sadly, it's also very humid. As a result, if I ever leave the apartment with the air conditioner runnin, when I come home, enough humidity has fallen out of the air that paper is wet, my clothes on the shelves feel slightly damp, and my covers feel like someone--albeit a very clean someone--has already been there.
I may simply not be cut out for wet climes... needless to say, the air conditioner is going to be turned off...

Hum...I always assumed that a/c removed the humidity from the air...that seems odd to me.

Perhaps all hot Asian countries do this; hotels, shops and restaurants in India freeze you to indicate how classy they are.
