More of the mundane

We had a new freezer delivered today. The old one was working fine, and in fact was likely to keep working fine forever. It was built back in the days when refrigeration units were designed to work forever and USED A MILLION KILOWATTS OF ELECTRICITY. The new one should pay for itself within 2 years.

Almost every light in our house is now using a compact fluorescent, and we have flat panel displays on our computers. We're also keeping the AC a little higher than we did last year. Good for the environment and good for my wallet.
