Even Asian gear has that now. My Instek scope came with lots of language
options for the on-screen menu. With many of them I had trouble finding
out what they were because the language setup identifies them in their
native character set. The written manual is English-only though. I find
it sad when companies print a 2" thick stack knowing that 90% of it will
either never be read or thrown away because everyone uses English
anyhow. They should give me those trees instead, cuz it's friggin' cold
and I can use the firewood :-)

I'll second that. Throwing on extra blankies and turning up the
thermostat for the last couple of nights. At this rate my energy
bills are going to be out of sight this season.

I finally turned on heat last night.

This year we went directly from AC to HP without a day in between.
Since, we've only had the heat off for a day or two. Last year it was
two months between AC off and HP on.

Slept much better ;-)

I like it cold when I sleep. In VT we'd back the heat off to 58F at
night (64F during the day, unless we were home and especially cold).

Awoke to a wind-damaged patio... table with glass top, and 4
"captain's" chairs tossed into the grass.

Amazingly it appears the glass did not break.

It takes a *lot* to break that stuff. When it does go, watch out!

Now that the sun is coming up I'll go out and see how bad off it is
.
