I don't see any advertisement. It just starts right out with, "And now, we're going to push the wire back up into the ceiling.........."
Now I'm wondering what a 23 is.

It's some moronic buzz about green energy that GM started for the "Volt" car.

That's what they want you to think... The truth is, congress has mandated that we are switching from 120 V to 230 V by August 11. They are going to subsidize converters for awhile, but eventually, you'll have to update all your appliances.

I have an old 1990 Jeep Cherokee that I use to go camping and down dirt roads and what not. I loaned out my truck to my brother, and my Accord was needing tires, so I took the Jeep out for a spin. I ran it bone dry of gas, filed it up, and reset the odometer. Anyway, long story short, I went ahead and drove the rest of the gas out over last weekend, and I averaged 21.2 MPG, not too bad for an old clunker.

Wow. I've got two more days to figure out how to get 230v from my 240v panel.

It must be true. The Europeans have that voltage, and we are sure to follow. Besides, I heard it on Art Bell, so you it's fact...

Ask the Brits how they did it. They have 240 V coming out of their panels, yet the official voltage is 230...

Already happened. The metric system was made legal for use in trade and commerce in 1866. The U.S. signed the Treaty of the Meter in 1875. All of our standards have officially been defined in terms of the metric system since 1893.
So, you see, a meter is NOT 39.370 inches. An inch IS 2.54 cm.

I've got a 240v panel, but I only have 235 coming out. Maybe the Brits can tell me where my 5 volts went.
