![]() ![]() ![]() Clarke's " July 20, 2019: Life in the 21st Century" I think the story you are looking for is House Arrest by Erik Larson. I read it when I was like 6 years old (in 1996 or thereabout), please forgive my bad memory. It is implied that the house has intelligence of its own, and it should have known better than to lower the temperature so much that the human inside would die, therefore it is brought to justice. In this movie, the scene was very cold, and the house, thinking that it was a good movie-immersion idea, started to lower the temperature of the room, effectively killing its owner. This is set in a dystopic/utopic future (like pretty much all Ray Bradbury wrote), and it describes a smart house being tried because it has apparently killed its owner while the owner watched a movie. I remember it vaguely, especially the ending, but I'm quite sure most of the following elements are in it: I'm quite positive that it was written by Ray Bradbury, but now I'm second-guessing myself. I was fairly confident it was in Ray Bradbury's Illustrated Man, but when I went to Wikipedia to review the short-stories there contained, I couldn't find the one I was looking for. I need the title of the short story that I describe next. ![]()
