    Here's one of those really lame questions that has no purpose in life (like most of the things I'm curious about). I'm sitting here in my office in jeans, a T-Shirt and I'm totally boned-out from another session of strength training. My feet have no socks (hate socks recently) and they are almost cold enough that they would hurt but not quite. My hands are cold but my fingers are not stiff. I keep it at 68 degrees (yup, have my own thermostat from the rest of the house) and I like that. Helps me to stay alert. I'm positive most women on this earth would cut my heart out for as cold as I keep it if I had them work with me. Women seem to prefer about 78 to my 68 and at 78 I'm just about asleep at the keys. So what temperature do you prefer? As a side note I prefer outside air but right now doing so would bring it up to about 90 degrees in my office and that's my definition of hell. - Rex

    about 20C for me (oddly enough that's 68F) but if I'm sitting still for too long I do get a bit cold so up to 22C). Elaine :rose:

    The tigress is here :-D

      depends how warmly I'm dressed, and what i'm doing. I'd like to turn the office thermostat down to ~60 (@#*($# long pants), at home I wear shorts year round and generally don't turn the heater on until it starts slipping below ~65 unless I'm expecting company. I have my AC set to the low 70's because any lower and it starts sucking power like mad. 55 and shorts is great for yardwork, and if it's stopped falling I'll wear the same for digging mt car out of the snow to about 25F.

        I prefer things on the chilly side. My optimum coding temperature is about 55f. My optimum working and moving around temperature is about 40f. In defference to my wife we agreed that I cannot keep the house any lower than 65. When I was single I kept it below freezing at night (seriously and water/liquid left out would freeze). I absolutely cannot stand anything above 75.


        Happiness is knowing that somewhere out there, there is a bullet with your name on it.

          Like you, 68 - I will set our office air-con to 20/21 (Centigrade, obviously!)

          I know a lot of men who seem to like around 80F - it it's not (just) women...
