99%, ugh, that makes Me almost want to hurl, still the two take their toll on Me as the car a/c is still out and I had to drive to Barstow in 100F temps today, the a/c does blow hot air, under the hood is ok, under the dash still needs fixing, but to get what I want I have to sacrifice something and so comfort is it.

Nope not a typo, today it was 72% inside, sometimes the humidity gets above 80% on really humid days, today I could smell rain, but none fell here, most likely virga since I could smell rain & not see any rain, virga is rain that doesn't reach the ground, too much heat is in the way of that. Less humidity outside, like near 9% with 100F+ temps outside makes 78F-82F & 65-80% humidity inside more bearable.

The humidity outside was/is much lower(96F/23%), if the humidity inside was lower the air inside would be hotter, ok?

Outside the temp/humidity is 96F/23%, inside the temp/humidity is 78F/71%.

Well It goes like so: humidity inside goes up, the temperature inside goes down, ok?

Heated air comes in contact with cool water, the heated air gives up energy to the water which makes the incoming air cooler and yes more humid.

If the humidity outside were high, You'd be right, but most of the time the humidity outside is really low, only when it rains does humidity inside become a bit uncomfortable. I weigh more than You do, I can take the temps, so can you.

Will this help explain how the air can be 72% humidity and be comfortable?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler#Evaporative_cooler_designs

Note: To make an evaporative cooler work, one must leave a window open where You want air to be cooled at.

I live in a dry and hot climate Uli, so it's not uncomfortable here, unless one is outside in 100F+ temps.

biologically speaking high humidity starts to become a problem a higher temperatures, when you start to sweat to cool down, but the air is too humid to allow good evaporation. Humidity makes us feel temperatures as hotter.

25 C isn't really hot but at that humidity may feel 'schwuel' (whatever the english equivalent to that sensation is) which some people find very uncomfortable.

Uli, I suggest you stay away from (sub-)tropical climate zones :D

My outside thermometer is showing 29C - looks like summer is making another appearance in Germany.

In a dry desert climate humidity lowers the temperature inside, when the air outside is hot and dry... So then humidity is not a problem, I use a 1 stage cooler, there are coolers known as 2 stage coolers, they make less humid air and as such their a bit more useful(50-70% instead of 70-80% humidity), Champion has the im70, but the cost isn't low, it's $2,159.00 and that is before shipping or installation too, plus it's really just an add on for Champions ULTRACOOL Single Inlet Coolers the Ultra 51 and 71 series really.

There's muggy, muggily and sultry, at least according to this website Here, Muggy fits best in this case, although in the desert muggy does not always happen. Inside it's 53% humidity and 76F as I have the cooler on now as I'd just cooked My morning breakfast, eggs and sausage w/hot coffee, outside the temperature(or temp) is 78°F/26°C, Clear, Humidity: 21%, as the temp outside increases the humidity outside will go down, so higher humidity inside is usually not a problem, unless clouds come and rain happens, then humidity can be a small irritation, 29C sounds lovely, Here 42C can be found with 8% humidity as that's typical weather for the high desert of California, Hot und Dry...
