**Was it 68 degrees? You were there too...**

Yes, and no lights were allowed on in the classroom, and I wore three layers to work every day!

OOO, it is all coming back! Leisure suits, and cold offices, and horrible music, and here's one I forgot about...THE MEAT SHORTAGE! Meat suddenly went up in price and the groceries sold ground beef with soy protein mixed into it! I had forgotten that one!!

I had forgotten about that - it took until Tuesday each week for the classrooms to heat up to the mid-60's. We were allowed to have half the lights on - the row away from the windows.

As for the windows, the schools began installing insulated panels and replacing large windows with insulated panels and a small window so as to keep the cold out. Unfortunately, it also kept the light out.
