Did you know? A suppository of unnecessary information.

One watt is equal to about 0.86 food calories per hour. The body uses about 100 calories each hour to maintain life. Therefore, the human body is a 120 watt appliance. :o

Thanks for that, I can sleep soundly with that piece of information tucked away in my little electronic filing cabinet. :-)

And when you wake up you will have used, for example, 8 x 120w = 960w @ $0.23 per kw = approximately 22 cents worth of power.

I wonder if you paid more whether you would have a better sleep?
