What do you consider room temperature? I'm thinking 72°F, but some of my family members insist that it's closer to 65°F.

Wikipedia says (citing the American Heritage dictionary):

Room temperature, in common usage, is taken to be roughly 20-25 degrees Celsius (68-77 degrees Fahrenheit, 528-537 Rankine, or 293-298 Kelvin).

Anyway.. I suppose it's time to break out the portable heater.

I think room temperature should be at body temp, like 78degrees.
Your relatives in Florida will not permit 65degrees while you are there- maybe.

But... body temperature is 98.6'F. That'd be more like a Borg ship.
