That is even 2-3 degrees celsius more than my room. But it is that for
at least 2 years now. We have had a number of companies for the heating
in that period and none was able to fix it. Well, it is only a small
office in a large building, who cares.

Well, when it's 84 in the morning, and the expected high for the day is
supposed to be around 107 ... it's a bit concerning.
Everything turned out OK. The AC just had a hard time cooling back down
after a weekend of 100+ temps.

I'd say the occupant of the office cares ... ;)

Yeah, that would be. :-)

I know that feeling - we had a lab at one place I worked (a computer lab)
where the heat kicked on after the temperature outside the building hit a
certain threshold - that was particularly nasty, I think the temps got up
around 120F before we started getting things powered off (of course, it
happened overnight, so nobody was in the building at the time).

A whirlwind trip - I was in McAlaster/Wilburton Oklahoma (where my dad's
extended family lives) for less than 24 hours.
The Dallas/Ft Worth airport is HUGE!

Yep. and a bit of a pain to get around in. Especially if your connecting
flight is in a different terminal.

The terminal in DFW is farther from the runways than the San Diego
convention center is from the runway in San Diego. :-)
I'm also amused that it's a $2.50 toll road some 7 miles long to get from
the entrance to the terminal.

How do the tolls work in Dallas? mainly along Route 121 and I635...
I was expecting a toll booth, but never ran into one - just the
electronic 'toll readers' that you pass under - I was driving a rental
and have NO clue how the tolls work.
I guess I am likely to get a nice letter int he mail stating that I owe
$3.43 in tolls and $135 in fines for not paying the tolls int he first
place.
