A record heat wave hit the area, I'll diary it on Friday -- the expected peak. But already today, the peak in Hungary was 40.6°C, in Budapest 39.9°C (highest ever measured), and in my office room 34°C (2°C above even the exceptional maximum permitted by law...). *Traitor*, n. A benighted individual who perceives an illusory distinction between serving his nation and abetting the criminals who govern it.
