I'm fairly new to the list and have been lurking for a bit. The comment
about the air conditioner was just that at that time they had almost
not heard of air conditioners. I realize that Texas is HOT. I wouldn't
work at 115F, let alone my computer.
You mentioned you spray water on the roof for cooling. Does that work
using evaporation something like a swamp cooler? The best explanation
of how a swamp cooler works I have run across is at
http://www.consumerenergycenter.org/homeandwork/homes/inside/
heatandcool/evaporative_coolers.html . There is a chart on the page
showing how effective a swamp cooler is under different temperatures
and humidity. It may be helpful.

I do have a wood stove for heat in the winter, and yes I do know how to
cook on it. I am planning on building a wood bread oven for outdoor
baking
in the summer. Ohio is not Texas, where the temperatures can hit over
115F, so AC is necessary, not just a luxury. I only cool my place to
about
80F. Any warmer and my computer refuses to work.
Bright Blessings,
Kim
