Good for the spelling Nazi. If you want people to take you seriously you learn to spell.

It really bites my crank that people get bent out of shape because someone called them on an error. Can't you just say "my bad" or better yet, ignore it? Do they have to become a 'nazi' in your eyes?

I was in the process of creating a new thread, then decided to make sure it hadn't already been done. Of course it had and this thread is it.

Here is what I was going to post:

A) What is your home thermostat setting (heating season)?
B) Are you comfortable at that setting?

I'm just trying to figure out where other people set their thermostats. For me, the answer is complicated because we have seven thermostats, four of which are programmable. But generally the temperature is set at 62°F when we are awake and around, and 48-54° when we're sleeping or not home. If we're going to be home all day I'll turn it up to 64°.

I'm generally comfortable in this range, except when I have to get up at 3 AM to use the bathroom.

My wife is often cold, but she doesn't overtly complain.


Unfortunately, this poll is closed so I can't vote.

How big is your house?

We generally keep it to 65 when at home. 62 at night or when gone.
