Reply to comment by Gemmabeta in TIL the best time to get your vehicle undercoated is actually in the spring/early summer. The salt from wintery roads is not as much of a culprit as damp and humid days are. by HeySquirrelFriends

Reply to comment by nasa in AskScience AMA Series: We're NASA experts working on SWOT - an upcoming mission that will observe nearly all water on Earth's surface. Ask us anything! by AskScienceModerator
I’m really psyched about NASA and what y’all represent in humanity and like rockets are really cool. I don’t have anything to add something gave me a chuckle. I thought, theres an avenue for me to tell a NASA employee, a representative of the worlds top scientist that their water science team sounds like snot. So yeah anyways, continue on with your all’s day. Thanks for your all’s work :)

It’s not common but here in America there’s houses build underground or under an artificial hill for geothermal regulation. They say at a nice 50ish degrees if I remember.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in TIL This palliative care paper determined that a stream of air from a bedside fan relieves dying patients of dyspnoea (breathlessness/ shortness of breath) as equally as supplemental O2. by No_Cauliflower_5489
I have sleep apnea and before I was diagnosed I became religious with my bedside fan. I got such better sleep when I had it on. I attributed it to less sweat during the night because a major symptom for me was night sweats. Maybe the fan helped me get better sleep in more ways then one! I’d love to see this effect studied on more sleep disorders.
