Calling me names defeats any purpose, and clearly shows your immature mentality. You obviously cant explain your own statement, and you want to call me ignorant. That's about as funny as it...

You can take exception with all you want, that's your prerogative. And remember I can do the same. But I can tell you that I'm very comfortable with my knowledge (not that I know everything), and I...

Privet messaging does no good with luches he just doesn't care about anyone else, and if you ignore it he just gets worse. He craves attention just like a little kid. If you ignore his yelling, he...

Just your huge EGO speaking again. What makes you think you are so special that you are only person on the planet to get facts (opinions) from, even if your opinion (what you call facts) were worth a...

I'm not concerned with revenge.
If that's what you want to call it when you mistreat and bully people, then wonder why they wont give you any respect (as I have no doubt your huge EGO sees it),...

Luches
Back again I see. What's the matter, you've been logging in about every other day for months and months. Do you miss me?

Yes, I did have that backwards (1000 watts= 1 kilowatt), but it...

I understand dividing watts by 1000 to get kilowatts (a kilowatt being one 1000'th of a watt), then multiplying by hours of operation. But nowhere is LUMENS a part of that calculation. Again, energy...

Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against willard3 in general. I may not be the smartest person on the planet, but I'm far from the dumbest also. If something someone says...

NorEastFla
Again I agree 100% with what your saying. I was taught in school that anything that causes resistance (ohms) generates heat and uses electricity. Like you mentioned even a extension cord...

Lights are not the only things that use electricity, energy and electricity are not the same thing (even if you want to think so). The electric company does not consider or charge by...
