Just curious about one issue concerning the 2025 National.
Has it been resolved there will be air conditioning at the 2025 National in Chicago?

I guessed correctly that this was your concern.

Guess it wasn't done in time for 2023:

I knew this was going to turn into a group standup act.

1027. The Stench of a Thousand Buffalo (loosely translated Ojibwe)
The hot, putrid and stifling air quality inside of a poorly ventilated show venue. See also: ”Air Conditioning, Air Conditioning, Air Conditioning” - an adage expressing the three most important factors in determining where to hold a large card collectors convention. See also: Breaksweatus Operandi (BO) (Lat.) - the unchanging, odiferous mode of slobs who never think of taking their fellow showgoers into account as they once again leave their deodorant sticks back home and unused. See also: Smellpox - the rancid haze that envelops and infects you as you stand tightly crammed in around the dealer tables. See also: Tactfoulness - the purposeful use of your malodorous ‘fragrance’ to make people scatter and free up space around you, so you have more room at the tables to comfortably operate in. See also: Flop Sweat Equity - although you regret your stink is affecting people, you know the gamey odors emanating from your body were earned honestly through your hard work in the card show trenches.

I was watching a program yesterday about the 1933 Chicago World's Fair. They mentioned an exhibit featuring a newfangled invention called air conditioning.

AC was actually invented for the printing industry. Presses paper and ink don't do all that well in hot and humid conditions. First widespread public use was, I believe, in movie theaters.

I've been to two shows there -- in November and March -- and both were equally HOT. I can't imagine July ...
