Who heats their house to more than 55F-60F now?


Anybody who doesn't want to freeze to death. You are aware that you
can die of exposure at 55F, right? -Dave


I've read that an adult male, resting and nude, can die of exposure at 80F.


You need to be more selective about the mindless **** you read.

It isn't only a matter of temperature - the amount of clothing
and activity, among other things, play a big role as well.


Yes, but no naked person can die of exposure at 80F when resting inside a house.
