Alex:

Thinking outside the box I'll make a brilliant conclusion that Egor lives in an apartment rather than a large 2- or 3-story home! 

... and alone

you are both brilliant!

You know what I can do?  I can move it all the way down to 50.  Or up to 100.  Anytime I want. You try that, you get your ass kicked.  Because Fox News tells you to get married and spawn like rabbits.

Egor is clearly in a bad mood today, come on buddy you are always reasonable, I know work sucks big time after a long Thanksgiving holiday, same here.  I don't even watch Fox News, btw, no time, and when I have some in the evening, по ОРТ идет программа Время :):)  И еще двое партизан на животе прыгают.  Егор, и ты никуда не денешься, к тебе неотвратимо приближается время, когда придется смотреть за температурой в доме!!! :)

no, i am in a great mood, just ran out of smileys today.

OK, Egor, just checking, not that I especially care or anything, including the spawning like rabbits comment :)

So, I looked up rabbit reproduction ... you couldn't have picked a better animal for your sordid remark! :)

• Female rabbit (doe) will "accept" the male (buck) any time of the year, unlike other animals that have to be in heat.
• Some start mating at age of 4 months (the smaller ones develop faster); they can have babies for up to 4 years.
• Time from mating to kindling is 1 month!
• A doe produces up to 12 little ones at a time!

Doesn't sound to me like anyone is aking her permission.

Все намана, Егор всем дал понять, что он абсолютный хозяин термостата, хватит нервировать человека в конце рабочего дня.

winter--> night 70, day 72

Shows 74, feels 68 . Depending on the room and time of day we try to stick to anywhere between 68-74.

---

About two weeks ago I bought an electric heater.  Now we can keep one room at 74 and the rest of the house at 65.  Supposedly it saves money.  Once the winter is over I'll compare the BTU usage to the last year to see how much.

We use electric heaters and keep the thermostat around 65-68. They save money, there's no question about it, I just don't have the exact numbers for you. Stopped doing these calculations couple of years ago.

They saved money last year - this year I think electricity went way up
