Yup, a plot to sell air conditioners, when we'll really need these.

Some of those are actually a pretty good idea. I've been known to wear a wool glove on my mouse hand when it's in the low 60s in my house and I'm surfing around. Otherwise, my mouse hand turns ice cold.

Oh, I agree with glatt. My hands lose function at that temperature. And my thermostats are set for 56°.

WTF?

People think we're nuts because we keep it at 65°. Do you wear a hat in the house?

I just sent that to my wife for Xmas ideas. If I got the monkey hand and foot warmers, I could turn off the heat in the rest of the house.
