This is kind-of my point. Nothing is desirable about the heat or sleeping outside. What IS desirable is having situations where I'm forced to converse with neighbors and live among them instead of separated from them. It just might be nice to be in those situations. The closest situation I can relate to is our heavy winters (where I live). I don't see half my neighbors all summer because we are cooped up inside, HOWEVER we have daily conversations in the winter as we're all standing at the curb taking a breather from the heavy shoveling.
