After 2 weeks of freezing cold, the 20% flock towards the thermostat and vote to change it to hot - it's a landslide victory. 2 weeks of scorching temperatures and they vote overwhelmingly to change it back to the cold. They have a short memory and are not sure that a middle ground exists.</p></blockquote><p></p>
