You could resell them to the Pentagon and get rich. Don't they pay $2500 for those?

When HSUS saves a cat, how do they keep it from killing mice? A cat will kill many mice in it's life and if animal life is equal to human life then wouldn't the many mice that the one cat would kill be counter productive to saving animal life?

You mentioned in another thread you need the kwh rate. I looked on the bill and this is maybe what you need (?) .10400.

If .104 rate per Kilowatt hour is accurate.....

and 125 watts is .125 kilowatts....

for each 24 hours....

then the cost would be .125 * 24 * .104 = 31.2 cents per day plus the cost of the bulb(s).

If winter is 91.25 days, then the cost for the winter would be a little over $28 plus the cost of the bulb(s).

Thank you then! That is not so bad as I thought it would be I guess. I am anticipating that it will be twice that amount due to winter being at least 91.25 X 2. :frowns:

I had decimal place wrong. Sorry. Correction is in original post. $2.80 plus bulb(s).

It's going to cost you 10 - 15 dollars a month to run a heat lamp.
When blacks have identity it is called pride.
When indians have identity it is called culture.
When jews have identity it is called history.
When whites have identity it is called racism.

Some animals are more valued than other animals. Since all animals die, there is no difference other than time, in the ultimate outcome.

What animal is valued the most and why? What animal is valued the least and why?
