Personal Air Conditioning - Another Creative Moment
The air was hot and humid around him. Everyone else was sweating, but he wasn't. He was born without sweat glands:
He did, however, have his own form of air conditioning. Some folks did not like it, unfortunately. His method was called breaking wind. It wouldn't usually be a problem when he was alone, but he always noticed the angry faces around him when he used his personal air conditionaing in a crowded elevator.
To his dismay, that is where he and several others were stuck. In a crowded elevator between the 7th and 8th floors. The air was getting rather sticky, and, just as sweating is involuntary, so was his personal air conditioner.
He was glad, for the others' sake, that his air conditioner didn't go off very often. You see, his built-in system provided him with adequate cooling, but it was not continuous, as sweating is.
A couple hours later, he finally let go, having let the pressure build up until the proper time. A loud sound, and then, screams of people gasping for air, could be heard in the elevator shaft. After a few minutes, he was the only one left standing; the rest were all unconscious from the noxious vapors.
