I'm an energy Superman

I saw a pretty amazing statistic the other day: The average household uses about 70% of the energy it consumes on appliances that are plugged in but not being used.

This is an eye-opening figure, but I've discovered a simple solution: just leave your appliances running all day! With the appliances no longer consuming energy on stand-by mode, you have cut 70% of your house's power usage! Think it over while I go restart my microwave again...
