    I watched the Energy Star Treasure Hunt video to learn about low-cost energy savings options.  I have a few things to check at my home, including door sweeps, weather stripping, covering AC unit and cleaning refrigerator coils.

    I learned that 40% of the population does not believe indigenous people exist.  That is heartbreaking.  Our government and education system need change.
