Not to defend people who can’t grasp that hot pavement is hot, but a friend recently gave me a solar box cooker. I have burned myself more than once after looking right at the built-in thermometer that says 350 degrees F and reaching in with my bare hand. There’s a weird psychological thing about heat from the sun. Maybe we’re so used to it being benign that we have a hard time accepting that it isn’t, always.
