I try, bro. Some. Like I park and walk for all my errands, but I have to drive 10 miles to get there. The one I don't really watch, at home, now, is H2O. Since I'm my own company, I only have to conserve to get me to the next rains, so I don't necessarily turn off the tap as often as I once did. Low flow showerhead, low flush toilet, double paned windows, lots of insulation, flash water heater, blah blah.
But I lie in bed at night, or in the morning if I worked, and I look at about 15 little lights, from the stove and microwave clocks to something at the back of the computer what may be hooked to the internal battery, to answering machine to my subwoofer. And I have to drive 40 miles to work, uphill both ways, and downhill both ways, too.
But, ya know, when I get the solar in, I'll look at the little lights like I look at letting the tap run, cuz it'll be my electricity.
