This heat wave probably isn't helping much, either. I walked into a neighbor's home this afternoon, and I thought I was walking into Ice Station Zebra. She keeps her thermostat at 65 degrees. I'd hate to see her electric bill. Honestly, if people had to live here in Oklahoma a hundred years ago, people would be dying in droves. I keep my thermostat at 83 degrees, which both lowers my utility bill and discourages visitors. I consider that a win-win.
