Touch screen based climate controls make me sad. I can&#x27;t use them at all. User testing shows that in actual use people prefer the old 3 knob approach but they seem to be drawn to the glossy touch screen that you can&#x27;t read in sun or even blindly grope at.<p>I&#x27;d blame terrible drivers in New England on bad UX in the cars... but I know it&#x27;s caused by them also eating a sandwich, doing their makeup, and talking on the phone while trying to merge.
