...and let me tell you a story about that...

When renovating my office building, we made the decision to spend $48,000 on totally new HVAC expecting a 10 year pay back. This was a difficult decision.

The first winter, the power company called to say they were investigating a problem with our gas meter.

"Oh", I asked, "Has our usage gone down with our new furnaces?"
"Yes", she replied.
"Great", said Mr. Silver, "How much did it go down?"
Her response: "To nearly 0!"

They thought the meter was broken, IT WASN'T! Instead of a 10 year payback, it's less than 4!
