Infact, the old
1960's electric clocks with motors in them, required more current to operate
than today's modern LED and LCD clocks.

The quartz sweep second hand clocks run for a year off a single AA cell.
So no power at all needed from the wall outlet.

The earlier appliances when
operating required much more wattage to get the same job done, therefore,
you will not win with this situation.

One of the ladies at work replaced her old fridge with a new energy
efficient one. Her electric bill went down fifty dollars a month(!)

PUNCTUATION - Apostrophe
Incorrect uses: (i) the apostrophe must not be used with a plural
where there is no possessive sense, as in ~tea's are served here~;
(ii) there is no such word as ~her's, our's, their's, your's~.

Confusions: it's = it is or it has (not 'belonging to it'); correct
uses are ~it's here~ (= it is here); ~it's gone~ (= it has gone);
but ~the dog wagged its tail~ (no apostrophe).

From a fully deputized officer of the Apostrophe Police!

I bought some batteries, but they weren't included,
so I had to buy them again.
