The end is near!

A cab driver told me that the progressively hot burning heat that Beijing is experiencing is inevitably going to lead to the end of the world. I didn't understand about 15% of what he was saying but he seemed pretty rational. He commented that the end of the world wasn't going to come in one fell swoop, it's a gradual process. One much like the conditions that we're experiencing. It's a 104 degrees right now. I encounter heat exhaustion every time I return from outside. When I'm outside, it feels like I'm being roasted alive inside of a Dutch oven. FFFFFFFFF this heat!
