Yeah, except many of Florida’s power plants are coal fired. It was in the high 20’s this morning in the outlying areas of Orlando. I want heat!

On a kind of funny note, the young kid here in the office (mid-20’s, really old enough to know better) was not going to run the heat this winter. That all changed last night. He routinely picks things out of the garbage that I have not properly put in the recycle can, wipes the crumbs off his plate with his hand instead of washing it to save water, etc.

I rarely turn up the heat in winter. If it gets too cold I make sure I have enough heavy blankets and pile them on.

I respect people who "walk the walk", acting according to their beliefs, until they try to force the rest of us to comply. Then I just wanna' shoot 'em!

Ask him why he is still breathing.
