Expunge global warming from your mind, Jeeves

It really is about oil. today william Gray, the hurricane dude, made another pronouncement that global warming is not due to human activity. OK, swell, forget about global warming, I don't give a poop about it, by the time it really kicks in, I'll be dust in the garden. But what about oil? Oil is really expensive to get, move, refine, move again. There are however better ways of dealing with energy. I know the skeptics say that solar can only provide a tiny amount of the energy we use, but wind and conservation can help to use less oil. when I was a kids, my parents were nuts about turning off lights in the house. Today we leave our computers on all the time and never turn them off. I have a 12 year old VGA monitor at home that I have turned on/off probably 3 or 4 times a day for 12 years. It still works great, it's a KDS so we're not talking about some expensive monitor here. why not turn off your computers, lights, a/c, unplug all the transformers, use power strips. I have a power strip on my tv, vcr, dvd palyer. The point here is that I save $$$$ by using less energy.
