One summer day a long time ago, I was stuck in the Schiphol airport. My flight was delayed again and again. The hours ticked by and I was so exhausted but I couldn’t fall asleep because I was alone. A flight attendant dressed like Judy Jetson walked up to me and said “I have the answer to all your problems.”
She handed me a handheld battery-operated fan. I stared at the thing. Then I watched her hand out little fans to everyone around me, saying the exact same thing. 
I might have let that preposterous claim slide if Judy was passing out frozen coconut limeades. They won’t solve any of your problems, but unlike that freebie fan, they’ll take your mind off of them for a moment.
