Thanks! My daughter is freezing her butt off in Santa Monica, California, and I'm burning mine off here in Arizona. We had a long phone conversation.

Do you have one of those smart thermostats that are being turned up remotely?

Thanks, Beebs. I got to spend my morning with my son at my sister's place outside Philly, after helping my mother celebrate her 80th birthday yesterday. I'm now back in Los Angeles, and he's back with his mom in Seattle. --Bob

No, evidently some power companies are taking advantage of a part of an energy saving program that homeowners volunteer for, but without being aware of this little provision. The companies are allowed to remotely adjust the smart thermostats "during peak energy events".
