Have you been watching the Beijing Olympics? Beijing is a fascinating place.

Have the Olympics inspired you to consider Beijing or China for an upcoming meeting?

Conference attendees have spoken - on surveys and questionnaires, and even to the media - they are tired of being cold!

USA Today ran a really interesting article discussing why conference rooms tend to be freezing cold, and what people are doing about it…

…It would seem that the logic to turn the AC down before attendees arrive will prevent the room from overheating would work for the reversal…and that in a cold room the heat would blast before attendees arrive and the door opens to let the hot air out.

Does the problem work both ways? Or is being too hot considered so unacceptable that freezing temperatures perceived as the lesser of two evils?

What do YOU think? Do you/will you begin writing temperatures into your contracts?
