Scumbria Re...I live in a well insulated house in Colorado. I drive about 6,000 miles a year. I fly about 100,000 miles a year.<<<

I am not sure where TGPdndr got his information I was responding to, if you indeed live in a well insulated house. You have mentioned in the past you used to live in a thin walled Wexler (I believe). I also built a well insulated house, over 2k sq. ft and I don't pay over $200 /mo. for heat. However, I had an advantage in that I built my house in the mid 70s when fuel costs were high, so it made economic sense to build a well insulated house. In fact I worked on superinsulated houses during the 70s but they went out of style. . I didn't build one because of the ventilation problems, but I have southern exposure, triple glaze windows, and double insulation in my ceiling. The $300/mo for heating a 1K sq. ft. house/ month he said you were paying is a big hunk of change.

I've designed some of the leading microprocessors in the world. How about you?

I own a business in construction; but I would like to scam little old ladies out of their welfare checks and steal their furniture and silverware when they aren't looking. Sort of like a Bill Clinton in Bib overalls. I also loose money investing in AMD and I am getting good at it..

Scumbria,

Why bother....your credibility is well established on SI threads, and posters know it. I don't think it matters who the speaker is and his/her credentials when people don't want to hear what that person has to say, or they want to discredit that person. They will only demean your credentials...most people are only capable of criticism.

Tonite, the tongues are wagging in Washington because B. Clinton is getting a 100K fee from MWD for his first speaking engagement. Some are appalled at the size of the fee, so much so they are threatening to close their MWD accounts.

They are small people with small minds......let them eat cake. ;~))
