Dang. We have to sent everyone in Niger an electric coffee pot so
they can use more electricity.

I shouldn't sound sarcastic. For years I would tell people that with
the power used to light up empty public washrooms in the US, we could
power the country of Chad**.

But that's not funny anymore because Chad changed its name to Brian.
