Depends on what you are doing. With the slightest activity I'm comfortable
at 16, but just sitting and watching TV, I'd have to put a sweater one.
Sleeping, we like the bedroom down around 14.

In Europe, the price of fuel keeps most homes down in the lower ranges of
temperature. I remember way back it was common for people to heat their
homes to 72F or more, but then the 1970's oil shortage changed that idea to
70 or less.
