You guys realize that the refrigeration cycle was invented before the Boomers right?
I didn't even see air-con 'til I was in my teens.
in the 60's i was attending A.S.U. in the valley of the sun, i.e. phoenix valley. I had a vw with no air, and in the summer 115degree temps. use to leave at night or early morning to get back up in the mountains. i don't remember a/c until late 70's, it was a swamp cooler. Which i still use in my house until the monsoon season, where the humidity forces a/c. At my house in central arizona, we never had a/c, at best a swamp cooler in the window.
