The paradox of energy efficiency
efficiency That's the title of this article and it's one that might raise your eyebrows. It sure raised mine. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Fan letters
upside down helicopter fan If air conditioning is too expensive, try using a ceiling fan instead, but you're probably not going to save any money with this ceiling fan. But on the other hand, you may want to stay away from fans altogether. Read about what the Koreans are saying about them. Did you know the mortality rate of people exposed to fans is 100%? Shocking, isn't it?
And while we're in the Asia
solar panels The Chinese are now having a problem dumping their solar panels in Europe. Here's the story. They're running out of places to put this stuff!
I like this idea
radiator And I also like the statistics this article offers. It makes me wonder why there's such a great need to bleed radiators in the U.K. I thought the air separators were supposed to take care of that. I'd love to hear from some U.K. subscribers about this. Thanks.

Nothing to do with heating
copenhagen commuters But I've seen this going on in Denmark and have been inspired. When I was over there, I asked the waitress in a restaurant where all the fat people were. "They're in America," she said. Yep.
What's the temp?
interactive temp map Thanks to subscriber, Peter Wesoly for sharing this interactive map. Scroll slowly over the crosses to get the current weather conditions. I love this stuff!
On craftsmanship
window installation I think this article is worthy of a read. Are we losing our toolbox? How will that affect your job down the road? What do you suppose will happen next?
Heat wave damages foundations?
cracking foundation This is something I never considered. I'll bet it has implications for embedded radiant tubing as well. So much to consider these days. 

Hug your kids.
