1975, when they were considering these efficiency standards they were supposed to consider that the technology was really feasible and that there was an economic justification for it. But today thats beginning to be blurred and we know, certainly, at epa when they consider it, they certainly dont consider whether its technologically feasible or economically justified. So if we wanted to have a more balanced approach what were trying to do is hear from people who are involved in this on a daily basis because the American Public when they go to the Appliance Store to buy an appliance, they dont understand all about this efficiency. They just know what the price is, and then some people are telling them well you are going to save money even though its a lot more, because of the electricity that will go down. And other people make the other argument. So one of our objectives today is to just try to get a better understanding of what is the reality of this. And thats why were here. So i wan

But i meant all the terrorists who came from out of syria

For instance, if you live in texas, maybe its more benefit for you to have an Efficient Air conditioner but do you care how efficient your furnace is . In that case you may not save money by getting an efficient furnace. So i would say that different situations geographical area would have an impact on it . Absolutely. And you indicated the use of the product, obviously, would have an impact on it. And you mentioned, i think, some elderly people who maybe use it less would have less benefit from it as well, is that correct . That is correct. And the Department Notes that in its analysis.
