Sporadically you meet people that seem to be quite intelligent, yet there are gaps in that intelligence that surprise you. I think that has a actually polite way of saying that some people just don’t seem to have any familiar sense when it comes to particular things. Take my Grandma, for example. I cherish his to death, however he is lived too long on this Earth to not realize that leaving the windows open while the a/c is on is a bad thing. It’s kind of ironic, because my own mom taught me this. I think he learned the difficult way from Grandma’s bad example, however grandma thought that leaving the a/c on while the windows were open was getting the best of both worlds. She got the nice, cool air coming from the a/c, but he also had the fresh air blowing in to keep things from getting stale. She even said that it balanced things out so that the fresh air & sunlight would make sure that it would not get too cold from the air conditioner! If he wanted fresh air & sunshine, he would have been much better off simply taking a step outside for a while. Now, there are numerous reasons why this was a bad idea, however the main one is that his a/c was working harder to cool his home. That meant energy bill costs would go up. I cannot think his mother never told her, “We’re not cooling down the whole city!” Maybe they didn’t have a/c when he was a child. I’m trying to get through to my Grandma about this a/c problem, however an seasoned animal doesn’t learn current tricks, & doesn’t want to be told how the world works!
