Dear Murdoch,
It seems to me that it is better to cook
where you find the most ease or joy.
It occurs to me that if the outside temperature
is 90 F and the inside is 76 F, it would not take
very many trips to add enough heat and moisture
to your home to outweigh the savings in heat

Dear Darryl,
I seem to recall one solution to adding thermal
mass to homes in the Arizona desert.
A pit is built beneath the home and filled with
boulders --lots of mass. At night, cool air is drawn

Thanks, these look like good ideas, and I do think that, with concommittant
behaviour modification, the sort of thing that might save me a little on cooling
costs.
I think that a lot of conservation efforts require a little effort to learn
something a new way, and in some (not all) cases they c

Hi All,
It's almost summertime, and for those of us in the Arizona desert that means
high energy bills for cooling. I am looking for a good list on how to save
