This is what i said re clocks..

""Take a walk through where you live at 4:00 Am and count how many little red eyes are peering out at you from the blackness, count how many clocks are telling you the time. Sure they are only drawing milleamps you say, but they are on 24/7 x365 do the math for the country.""

and this related to above..

""Would it make sense to have a button on each of the above devices, that you could press if you wanted to, and it would tell you "yes i am working and it is 4:AM"..one second worth of juice compared to above.""

<<NYCity mandated toilets with smaller tanks about 5 or so years ago.>>

NY city would really be doing something if they mandated the Caroma toilet.It never plugs..because of 4 inch trap.I know of apartment buildings that have changed over to them, saving 40 percent on water usage.
