Or the opposite of 451

It's a bit nippy out on the east coast which make me wonder how cold is too cold? At one point of time I had my books in storage. I of course had more than my comic books, but it was those Collectibles that had me pick a climate controlled storage locker. My addiction called this place home for the better part of five years.

My current location houses my full collection and normally when I leave the house I lower the temperature to sixty degrees. The unfortunate problem is when it's windy, as it has been, my place becomes a lot colder than I feel comfortable with. If I put the heat on seventy, it might actually be sixty five, and though I know there are mini home remedies to help insulate better, I don't because I rent.

So I wonder what is the optimum temperature to keep books healthy, whether it is an encapsulated graded comic book I own or my numerous raw copies. When it gets hot, how cool should I keep it; when it's cold, how warm? Will a move in geography help or hinder the destruction of my collection caused by time. Is CGC encapsulation the answer, and if so how could I pass in ever reading them again.

Thanks for Reading
