I mentioned it really because sf was accusatory and actually I am very
good at not wasting My power bill is a fraction of some friends,
but then they go from room to room leaving lights on etc. I also
loathe to turn the oven on for just one item etc etc.

If I was still in a house I would install one of those on demand water
heating thingies, they are very good.
