Analysis:
- The daily temperature recorded by hobo #4 does reach above 100 degrees F during theater use and does not drop below 50 degrees F during non-theater use. The large fluctuation in temperature has to do with the ceilings height and the act of the warmer air rising. The hobo, also being so close to the heater, has large fluctuations. The rapid up and down temperature changes are due to the heater being turned on and off at these times. Thursday, the 9th, the heat did not drop as it did the other days. This is because the heat was not turned off that night. A fan is placed above the heater to push the warm air down but this clearly does not work as well as it was intended.
