And yet they In the UK they’re fining some people and demanding removal of newly installed AC units as they’re not allowed under their energy policy… SMH

It's the same logic as California and New York raising the cost of housing with God's own list of regulations, requirements, permits, studies, studies, studies, investigations, etc., etc., then decrying the price of housing and the death of the American dream of owning your own home.

For the life of me, I don't understand how the Democrats plan to make "affordability," their campaign issue when the bluest states are also the most expensive.

Didn't have AC in the classrooms at Tuscaloosa High School when I graduated in 1977. Most legacy buildings on the UA campus didn't have it in the classrooms, either. The administrative offices of both THS and most UA colleges, however, did.

we got ceiling fans installed in the school my 7th grade year ('81-'82), and they installed window units in all of the classrooms a couple of years after.

Only had a window fan in my dorm room, and that was 1982. There was a window unit in the TV room.

When I got married, we moved to Abram's Court and had a window unit in upstairs bedroom. A little leaked down the stairwell...

It used the heating radiators. Water was chilled for the summer so I guess it was a retrofit. (Sommerville Hall)
