The old buses did not have air-conditioners. You said "well it didn't happen here until now" (I think you meant "recently"). I am sure during the early years when MRTs were not available and buses were hot, it did happen, but maybe people were a little more tolerant than you are today.Speedwinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827682557075362199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17473688.post-3337132295563986432007-11-22T14:53:00.000+08:002007-11-22T14:53:00.000+08:00...it happens everywhere.

You seem to go on about this body odour issue. Let me tell you, it happens everywhere. In European cities, especially in summer, London Underground not spared, we get the same problem. No big deal. I think you should give this topic a rest. I have read something about this subject, it seems it is a medical condition Speedwinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827682557075362199noreply@blogger.com
