True. In fact, on a recent re-roof I choose black shingles instead of
the grey ones that were there before. While it gets quite warm here in
the summer, our winters are quite long, so the benefits of the heat gain
in the winter FAR outweighs the additional AC I need in the summer
(which isn't much during sunlight hours anyways since I'm away at work
during the day).
