Not sure anyone from Europe thinks use of AC in hot climates is daft. In the UK we have a couple of months where it may be 20C-30C, so it's pretty pointless installing AC in our homes.

But do you take a portable heater into your freezing office to keep warm on a hot day. I worked at place that had to send out a stern memo, out-lawing the offending appliance. The buildings fuse blocks were being blown at an uncomfortable rate.
