re: Why Can't Grown Adults Understand How a Thermostat Works?

My wife and son are convinced to the point of violence that it is necessary to roll down the windows in a car for about 15 minutes to let the hot air out. It does indeed work for about 1 minute...the temp inside will equal that outside pretty quick...but shortly after it does you are cooling 100% makeup air. That dog won't hunt I do not care how bad you want it to. A sunroof with an insulated head liner really works well for a short while...but running around with 4-80 AC and the AC running does nothing but make the air in the car and out the same....(for the uncouth among us 4-80 AC is 4 windows open and 80 MPH).
