Ronnie's air conditioning post jogged my memory a bit and a story I won't forget came to mind. Yes, it's another harvest story. We were cutting in a field west of Dighton Kansas and it was normal Kansas wheat cutting temperature, around 100, plus or minus a few degrees. We had one young man on the crew who was just a nice all around kid. HE never whined or complained, just a nice kid. Sometime in the middle of the afternoon he got out of the combine cab and casually mentioned the air conditioning wasn't working, there was no fan. I went to the service truck and grabbed a fan and as I was installing it under the seat I asked him when the fan quit. He told me it quit yesterday afternoon! Yesterday afternoon!!! He sat in that closed cab in 100 degree temps with no air or fan and just took it without complaining. I don't know how he stood the heat. If he would have passed out in that cab it would have been bad news. We tend to complain about the whiners but there comes a time when a little whining might be necessary..
