  • I like this take as you take into account the human element, but might even take it a step further in that this kind of knowledge could actually be good for more people to know this cost. Especially if cost is an issue, could help families work together in easy ways for a common goal. Maybe it’s not worth it to say anything during a heat wave to save a few bucks, but on a cooler week maybe open some windows to save some cash sans suffering.

    Extreme example: as a dad I feel a cultural obligation to get upset when random lights are left on when no ones in the room (not really, but does beg the question of why) - when you actually do the math on led lights it ends up something insignificant, like a cent. Not an issue that really deserves any attention.


  • Not a coffee creamer fan, and don’t like sweet coffee, but I can totally agree that if I wanted (for some reason) my coffee to taste like a twix, or a Snickers, or a pop tart, I would be kind of disappointed if it were so weak. I am guessing it’s probably due to the assumption by the manufacturer that people are going to use a whole lot more of the creamer than he does, so to make those flavors stronger would overpower the drink.
