Do some people get stupider with age or were they born stupid?
Posted earlier about an elderly tenant who complained her refrigerator wasn't working. She had turned the thermostat to the warmest position and her ice cream frozen. Asked her why and she said refrigerator wouldn't shut off and her electric bill increased $20. Well the place is total electric and the electric heat is on.
So I put the thermostat on normal and refrigerator works perfectly, freezer 0 degrees. A few days later, same story ice cream melted. Same problem, she had moved the thermostat all the way to the left. Again there is something wrong with refrigerator, it runs all the time. It's running up my electric bill up. Hello, it's winter.
No need to argue with old stupid people, so I took a two year old refrigerator, exactly like the one she had, I was using out of my garage and put it in her place. Put thermostat on normal. 25 hrs later, freezer was at 0, refrigerator wasn't running. I also installed a gismo to measure the hours refrigerator ran, 11:40 hrs and the kw-hrs, 1.25 kw-hrs.
I told her the refrigerator used about $0.15 worth of electricity in 25 hrs. Had the refrigerator ran 24/7 it may use $.30 a day, $9 a month.
Plan to leave the meter on refrigerator for 30 days. I know she will complain there is something wrong with this refrigerator running up her winter electric bill.
I put her refrigerator 4 year old refrigerator in my garage, absolutely nothing wrong with it. If I set controls to the right of normal, freezer will get to -10. Sometimes I just hate stupid people.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
