Here is one for you. 5%RH or there about and 90ºF = pretty cool.
What do you think...

I'd say hot. So would ASHRAE, (Y = 1.79, with 67% of people dissatisfied,
vs Y = 0, with 6% dissatisfied), based on 21,000 people around the world,
who'd prefer adding some moisture to reduce the air temp, which might come
from a swimming pool :-)

Imagine yourself in a 90 F office, in a dry shirt...

Still you living out of a book and do not understand the part %RH plays
in the comfort levels.

I understand thoroughly, my good man. In this case, I'm afraid you are
the one lacking average empirical understanding, and an understanding
of the way surveys work.

I would have 90ºF and a 10%RH in my home before I would have 60ºF
with a 100%RH.

OK. Everyone's tastes are different. There's nothing wrong with your
misunderstanding average human behavior. It's a matter of surveys and
preferences, vs absolute science. But you must admit facts. It's hard
to deny the average tastes of 21,000 people around the world :-)

Do those 21,000 people from around the world reflect your tastes?
