I've never lived in an air conditioned house ....... well, we did have an
AC'ed apartment in Hong Kong for a few years in the 1970s. Otherwise my K25
and K64s have lived in west coast BC humidity, no humidity in Calgary, and
now in east coast humidity. Never had any fungus or mould. Slides live in an
airtight plastic slide box out of the light in cool surroundings. I talk to
them nicely and only have them in slide boxes whenever they get a whizz thru
my aged Pradovit.
