There is some good news for those of you in California. The nannies that run your state have gone from requiring thermostats you wouldn’t be able to override in a power “emergency” to allowing you to override those new thermostats to now dropping the requirement entirely (technical issues prevented me from getting the link to the story as of the writing):
But the agency backed off even more this week by announcing that the proposed remote-controlled thermostats would be dropped entirely from the 2008 edition of the building-efficiency standards.
Of course, the voluntary plan to stick these PCTs will continue unabated.

Hey, that’s great news. I was following this story on another blog, Royale with Cheese. The blogger is a resident in CA and by the time the story really made news out there, the open hearings had concluded. Figures. I’m going to link to both of you on a new post.
