This sounds like good news to me! How grande it will be when men can take some responsibility for what their little guys are doing. *twinkle*twinkle*

We don't even have a furnace, it's all baseboard heaters, no venting system as our house (an old schoolhouse) was built in 1897. We use space heaters and are having a gas fireplace put in (instead of our current wood fireplace). I agree ith Lyn though, space heaters are very useful and much better then they used to be. We use space heaters more then the baseboard heaters as they are more effective. The baseboard heaters are mostly under windows, for whatever stupid reason so they are generally rendered useless anyway. So, I guess I also vote for good use of space heaters and definitely leave your fans on, just low, it makes a HUGE difference in the heat moving about. We have 14 foot ceilings and without the fans it is only warm beside the space heaters.

For my whole childhood I was determined to become a veterinarian. Having grown up on a farm it isn't that shocking I suppose. Unfortunately I sort of forgot that you have to work hard in highschool to do those sorts of things. It's so annoying that your parents are right about so many things but you don't realise it until too late. Luckily I have worked as a vet assistant (in surgery etc.) which has fulfilled my need for looking into the insides of creatures. *twinkle*twinkle*
