Fans that can swivel to direct airflow in an "arc": if only you could control how many degrees that bloody arc is! I don't need the stupid thing spending half its arc blowing air into my wall, damnit! :P
most of them do allow you to control this.

Not the cheap Wal-Mart ones, which is what I always buy 'cause I like it when shit breaks.

They do?? I've often gotten annoyed with this myself. I know how to control the arc of a lawn sprinkler with those little wire clips, but I don't remember seeing a room fan with the same capability.

I've not encountered that feature in the models I've purchased, unfortunately. :-( Mind you, this one is like 10 years old and still going strong, so I've no good reason to replace it. It's highly likely it'll continue to function for a while yet.

Wait, you want the air to come out of the fan, and then hang a louie?
