The Pine Beetle and P,G&E

Hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day...


I spent mine in Toronto. Toronto Globe And Mail is the newspaper of choice. The cover story was the pine beetle, which seems to be eating through the forests of Northern Canada. The rapacious creature is only about the size of a grain of rice, but it seems to be a hungry grain of rice. The creature is rapacious. Read further, and realize the Pine Beatle has been around. The experts will say that the beatle is killed by prolonged cold. Prolonged cold has not happened for a number of years...in Northern Canada(for the unitiated to the Yale Blog, this is a veiled reference to global warming)


Anyway..Pacific Gas and Electric has three basic ideas on how to save roughly $750 a year...Anything sound familar


1. Unplug and remove your old, secondary refrigerator. Estimated savings $360 per year

2. Raise your thermostat from 72 to 78 degrees

3. Change your 10 most used bulbs to compact fluorescent
