NY Times notices you've been talking about how hot it is this summer

The summer heat has taken its toll on the good people of the New York Times.

From a Wednesday editorial, titled "Summer's Beast Is Loose":

The more extreme the weather, the more people talk about it, as if talking were a biological signal that we are reaching our limit. But, this year, the conversation has a different tone, as if this heat wave, which has punished the West and is now punishing the East, were more than a temporary discomfort and part of an uncertain and conceivably more dangerous future.

For context, the Times has knack for finding deep meaning in the weather. In October, the paper published an editorial on how majestic the fall breeze is ("The Breath of Autumn").
