Thankful for Electricity!

In the aftermath of yet another natural disaster, one that left thousands upon thousands of people without power and transportation, and on this week of Thanksgiving, we felt it was appropriate to take a moment and appreciate electricity and the grid that powers our modern lives. Nothing helps you recognize what you have like losing it all – so in honor of those affected by Sandy and in the spirit of Thanksgiving, we want your help reflecting on the small to large electricity powered objects that influence our daily lives.

Here are some of the things that we appreciate:
Dan – Hospital refrigerators that keep organs alive.
Hilary – Servers that host the world wide web.
Allie – My freezer that allows me to eat healthy garden fresh veggies all year.
Charity – Hot running water.
Sam – Anything that helps make food and cold beverages.
Kristi – lights – because I’m afraid of the dark.
James – The machines that make solar technology possible, of course.
Kate – my coffee grinder so I can make fresh french press coffee every morning.

Your turn – what electricity powered technologies do you most appreciate?!
