The Louisiana Purchase stretched from the Mississippi River to the beginning of the Rocky Mountains. Official boundaries were not determined, except that the eastern border ran from the source of the Mississippi River north to the 31 degrees north.
Cooled (or air conditioned) seats work by confining cooled air directly in the seat where the passenger is seated. Multiple fans are put within the seat to provide air circulation. The air from the fans blows through a diffusion layer to spread the cool air throughout the seating material, cooling the whole surface.
Heated engine coolant passes through to the radiator when the thermostat is in the open position. In the closed position, it prevents the flow of coolant to speed up the warming of a cold engine. When the thermostat gets stuck in the closed position, coolant stays in the engine and quickly becomes overheated, resulting in engine overheating.
