He turned down his hot water heater, switched to fluorescent bulbs. He also turns his lights off more often and drives his car less.

I never cease to marvel at some people's stupidity.

The man may be stupid, but there's nothing wrong with energy conservation. The steps he's taken are good, common-sense ones---steps we've taken in our own home.

He's just saving the world, one light bulb at a time.

He's obviously a hero. < sniffle>

He...switched to fluorescent bulbs

Doesn't he know that fluorescent bulbs contain the dreaded MERCURY? Seriously, I get the feeling that this whole GW thing is going to jump the shark sometime in the near future. It's just getting too hysterical.

Simple energy conservation makes good sense. Where you run into problems is when the government jumps in and forces stupid programs down your throat.

We use nothing but energy saving lightbulbs, and have done so for many years. If he talks his neighbors into doing that, fine.

If he talks his neighbors into a state of algore craziness, and they vote for politicians to start making enthanol from seaweed or some such stupidity, then he's just helping to spread trouble. Maine is already an economic basket case.
