Greetings,

There is probably a programmable thermostat out there with a two week
setting. I don't know where to find it either. Otherwise check out
http://content.honeywell.com/yourhome/tam/tamfaq.asp "You can use any
touch-tone telephone to control the Honeywell Telephone Access Module." You
could simply set up your computer to automatically place a call to your
thermostat once per week. There might also be a computer-controlled system.
Try X-10.com and other home automation sites.

Hope this helps,
William

As a dad who has 50% custody of his two kids -- one week on, one week
off -- I find myself wishing someone made a programmable thermostat that
could preheat the house at 5:30 am during the weekday mornings I get up
early so I can drive the kids to school; yet was polite enough to
preheat an hour later on the weeks I don't have the kids. I get to sleep
in longer those weeks. Every thermostat I've looked at so far has a
7-day program. I asked the kid at Home Depot about it and he went to ask
the manager and I've not seen him since.
