Advice for energy auditors
Some great points made in this article and I think the author, Comly Wilson, hits the mark with each one. Isn't it grand what life and experience teaches us? All we have to do is pay attention.

A beer story!
I love beer stories, especially when the beer helps to make more beer. Thanks to subscriber, Tom Riso, for sharing this one with us. It's a fine solution to an expensive problem.

Comfortable?
Here's a good story about what it means to be comfortable. And as the author writes, "There is no universal definition of comfort, especially as it relates to temperature." And who put the fish in efficiency?

Power
Just after Superstorm Sandy, I wrote this story for Supply House Times. All these months later, so many people are still homeless as a result of that horrible event. I don't think we'll ever be the same here on Long Island. I can only hope that we learned something.

A country with no water
Here's a fascinating TED video that should make you think. It sure made me think. It also make me appreciate that which so many take for granted - water. Last month, when I was at the AHR show in Dallas, I learned that 20 percent of the world's energy is used to move water. Isn't that astonishing? So much to consider.

Nothing to do with heating
But it does have to do with knowledge. Now and then, Wikipedia asks me to send them some money for their foundation and I do because I use Wikipedia a lot and I want it to thrive. They sent me this video the other day and I thought I'd share it with you. It's not an appeal for money (you don't have to send them anything); it's just an inspirational portrait of a lot of people who are passionate about their topics. I like that a lot. Thought you would, too.
