Hello Fellow Mayberrians, I appreciate the AC posts. I think you hit it on the head, Mike. I, too, think that Andy was probably referring to the *intensity* of the AC, rather than the temperature. If I said "we need more AC," that might also be expressed as "turn the AC up" as in *increasing* it. Those older AC units had those switches, not to mention bigger wires, so it was more of a manual (Manuel?) procedure. I wonder if Emmett might know more about that? Did he work on AC's?
