RE: Five not-so-obvious ways to conserve electricity
I checked my electric bill against your suggestions. I live in Nevada and the only line that was the same was the "Basic Service Charge" The other lines with the KWHs were Electric Comsumption, Temp. Green Power Comsumption (we all know how temporary that will be), Renewable Energy Program and the Universal Energy Charge. There seems to be no way when I look at the bill to do as you suggest.
You must be living in Utopia to have an electic company give you a clue as to what really is going on.
