<p> Back again, for a short visit.</p><p>Zoe, how about a RBF for me? I have not had one for a long time. Thank you, madam!</p><p>My electricity bill runs to about $100 a month,but is a monthly installment only, with balancing done at the beginning of each year. As we have all "green" appliances and those energy saving light bulbs installed, I do expect a refund. Yes, and we switch of the TV and other things on "stand by" with a master switch every night - saves us about $ 50 a year - not much, but a lot when you live on a shoestring budget.</p><p>Germany is a "green" nation by self acclaim. Wherever you go, you see those [banghead] (expletive deleted) wind power thingies, ruining the country side. Wind power is by no means economical and you hardly see them turn. Building those towers gets heavily subsidized - without those subsidies, the pay-off period would be something like 200 years, but only when the price for energy doubles. Unfortunately, if a nation decides to go "green" and ecological, there is little room for people left. It is all but a big scam to get money from us.<br></p><p>End of rant! (Promised)</p><p><b>Ray</b> - I thought that Keith´s Polish Chili Verde is so strong, it keeps your hair from growing out of your nose and ears. Must have misunderstood something - as usual. Blame my poor knowledge of the English language. <br></p><p> See you tomorrow!<br></p>
