More Ways to Produce and Save Heat

---

So to review just a bit from last week, these are all relatively small ways to produce or save just a little bit of heat. No single way will transform your utility bill, but we'll hope there will be some positive gains from thinking about heat a little differently. Growing up in the country and having a set of farm grandparents, it was easy to understand their daily concern about and awareness of the weather. It was nearly always the first topic of conversation between them and anyone they spoke to. I became interested in weather events in the late 1950s and early 1960s, and there were plenty of them, from the ice storm in '57 to the blizzard in '61 to the Palm Sunday tornadoes of April 11, 1965. Above is the famous photo of the twin tornadoes near Goshen, Indiana that day. We had some pretty extreme weather back in the days before global warming.
