One week ago it was 104F in north central Texas. If some moron commie doesn’t want to use it’s HVAC when it is cold or hot outside that is the nut job’s concern. But do not even think for a second I am turning mine off - at least until autumn really kicks in and we have low humidity and mild temperatures when I open up all the windows!
I always think that when people attack the notion of AC, it’s an indirect attack on Texas. Because they think if it wasn’t for AC, then Texas never would have developed as it has, and that makes them jealous.
I was in San Antonio at that time. Daytime highs were above 100 the whole time. No, we didn’t NEED air conditioning. But we don’t need cooked meat or rolled toilet paper either. Those are all hallmarks of civilization, not important to barbarians or Luddites.
