4. Thanks for this and welcome. It's really an eye-opener.
And I sure would hate to be paying the eastern half of the U.S.'s power bill.

Thx kayakjohnny and fishwax :)

Of course the power needed for lights, is only a fraction of what the world consumes for cars, furnaces, factories, etc.

7. Welcome to DU ...
... and that is SO COOL!


And while I was watching, I looked really, really close at Toronto - and saw that I'd left the porch light on. Situation now rectified.
