Default Range clock - Disconnect it!

This guy is years ahead of his time. Someday we will all be scraping the
bottom of the savings barrel this fastidiously. Well at least I hope not.
By the time the oil really runs out, we should be getting most of our
electricity from various green sources.

The clock on my range has never kept correct time, yet it keeps running
and using electricity. (Small amount, but many little things like this can
add up.)

So I pulled my electric range out from the wall, unplugged it, and
disconnected the clock. (Only do this if you know what you are doing.)

I already have many electronic things on power strips and turn off the
power strips when not in use. These things use electricity all the time...
