Who of us is not cringing at the reports we hear daily about the cost of rising energy costs, in particular, heating costs. I have been frantically stripping and refinishing storm doors and preparing to use weather-stripping and plastic to try to keep heating costs at bay this winter. In addition, visitors to my home can expect to dress warmly. My thermostat does not usually rise above 65 in the winter, and more often than not is around 63. This winter, it may be set to an even lower temperature. I found an article on MSNBC that you might find helpful.
