I want it to be an option is all. I don't know how many times I have walked into a jungle room in my house because the baby played with the dial.

Not because I like my house set at 80 (heaven's no!) but I know a couple of elders that freeze at anything lower, even while bundled and wearing slippers and such. My hubby's grandma is one such lady. 70 might be just too low for some of these elderly folk who's circulation isn't efficient enough to keep them warm, even when properly dressed.<BR/><BR/>Great letter, though! And a definitely feasible change to a lot of lives.Katihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18312698112377656801noreply@blogger.com
