Uh, then why is he getting trounced? Missouri has swung red in last 10 years or so, and any candidate who can generate a run-of-the-mill conservative campaign would have a good chance at getting elected. Akin can't do that, because he's batshit crazy...so he's going to lose. On Sun, Oct 14, 2012

The house we bought a few years ago has a heat pump/furnace hybrid thing going on. On some of the colder days, when it's using the heat pump, it doesn't feel quite as warm.but that's the trade off you make ( you aren't going to be able to get the same level comfort for the same price ). WE

Have not looked into thermal because HOA has rules against it (which a few families are fighting to get changed). Even looked into geo-tehrmal, but the installation costs are a lot more than we can afford at this time. Even if we don;t go with the 'hybrid' solution, the furnace we are getting
