An Inconvenient Draft
Sense and Sensible Heat
The Count of Magnehelics
Frankenhouse
The Adventures of Tom “The Tool Man” Taylor
The Great Gasping for Air
Of Mice and Men Who Foam their Holes

Some titles are more accurate than we thought:
Great Expectations
Les Miserables

Of course, we need to sell energy efficiency, so you’ll need “The Art of the Spiel.” Not exactly a classic, though.

Lord of the Blower Door Rings

Lord of the Blower Door Rings, eh, Leigha? That’s definitely a good one, but my two favorites are The Crawl Space at the End of the Universe and Fifty Pascals of Solitude. If I had to choose one, I’d go with the latter.
