   I"ve got everything that's got a screen for it opened.   
   They've remained so for last few days.  I finally talked   
   Kathy into letting me kill the gas to the heater all the   
   way. That meant i also got to do the climb thing to switch   
   the direction of the ceiling fan in the hallway over it.

   Wouldn't surprise me.  A lot of commercial buildings i go in and out of are   
   already running theirs of course.  One of my   
   neighbors down the street is running his central as well.  I know, because   
   when it cycles the compressor I get little   
   burps on the hf frequency I monitor all the time, think he's got a loose   
   ground somewhere and that's gonna reach out and   
   bite him eventually.  I only hear it when the comrpessor   
   cycles on, and then only in cooling months.
