Economizing

Which do you suppose would cost least: Running the faucet for a full minute to get warm water, nuking the cold water to warm it, or warming the cold water on a stove? And which would have the least environmental impact? Hmmmm...

Get a hot pot that heats the amount of water that you need in two minutes and then automatically shuts off when it is boiling. Eric surprised me with a very nice gift that does just that--adn it is much nicer than the traditional hot pot!

Oooo... clever! That reminds me of a Japanese hot water pot. It looks like one of those coffee carafes that has the push-button on the top to dispense the coffee, but instead it plugs into the wall and keeps the resevoir of water hot all the time - great for tea-drinkers!

Warm water? You can't be very ecologically sensitive if you're using warm water.Dad
