Sorry, but no matter what you do, if you lower the AVERAGE temperature over a long period, you save energy. That's the beginning, middle, and end of the facts. Your average temp over the entire heating season is what counts. Lowering the temp for a period each day results in a lower average temp over the course of a heating season.

All things in moderation, of course. The folks in New Orleans might consider water a pollutant.
Why thank you! Now where is my gold star?
If left alone the boiler kicks on maybe once every 4-6 hours for only a short 5-10 minute period (maybe 4 or 5 recyclings of the entire water load).
If you let the house cool for 10 hours while at work, the boiler will have to run several hours to get all the floors (and house contents) heated again.
I've noticed with my computer that if the key doesn't work, I hit the key harder and then it does. :)
I walked half a block home, then drove to the hospital, through normal traffic for the time (about 6PM) and didn't do anything dangerous.
Oxygen is a dangerous explosive gas .... on Titan.
