Carter thermostat order shifts restaurant heat norms
United Press International surveys show many restaurants losing business after President Carter's 78 degree thermostat rule. Monks Inn in Miami reports 5 to 6 percent drop with 40 patrons daily complaining of heat. Managers cite reduced appetite, cooler menus, and higher beer sales as response. Some say the heat raises concerns about food safety and energy use, while others in Washington DC note persistent complaints at Rive Gauche.
