  - no more or less unfair than it would have been to punish Obama's if it had been true - pixie fierce Oct 24, 14:24

  - Yup. I'm either frozen or sweating all winter. -- nm - krusty Oct 24, 14:11 4
    - the only solution is to have the radiators on full blast and the windows open at the same time. -- nm - znufrii wants pie Oct 24, 14:20 3
      - [deleted]
      - I'll give it a try when it gets really cold. -- nm - krusty Oct 24, 14:24 1
        
        and it's best to open it from the top down if possible. less hot air will get trapped in the apartment that way -- nm - znufrii wants pie Oct 24, 14:28
