why

is every public building and business down here air conditioned to a chilly 65 degrees? but in the winter the heat is cranked up to the mid 70s?

Can anyone imagine how much energy would be saved if all of the south switched the thermostat from winter to summer?

And USA today pimped me on a blog entry - front page even... i just never got around to editing it down to a bit more PC... there's the link. I haven't had time to go back and check the post i started to write yet.

That and this USA today think with having the whole article on one page? what is up with that?

I with you on the energy issue. I have a sweat shirt I keep here at work, I wear it more in the summer than the winter.

No link to the USA article?

the japanese have changed their corporate culture to drop suit jackets and raise temp setpoints. i forget the name for the program but i want to say its almost a code thing.

On new construction, there are code requirements here for space temp setpoints, but of course that is only design, once we hand it over, its out of our hands.

It's 81 in our little dinky grassroots office - no sweater here, just a desk fan!
