Regretably, neither had they twit filters.

It's amazing how wimpy modern men have become. Hot water is a LUXURY,
not a necessity. Take 2 or 3 cold baths or showers and your body will
adapt to it. But you are too accustomed to living the life of luxury,
and luxury is a waste of money, energy, and resources.
 
Until the late 1800s, hardly anyone had hot water in their homes. Even
before World War 2, most people just heated some water on a kitchen wood
stove and put it into a small tub to bathe. And then, a whole family
used the same bath water. They bathed once a week or less, and they
survived.
 
Stop making excuses to have luxury items, and call them NECESSARY.
 
The 21st century is the century of waste and excess.
