Is it cheaper to use a plug-in oil radiator to heat an individual room, or run the central heater to heat an individual room and living room?
  • Heating just the room will be overall cheaper. However doing the whole house will be cheaper per square foot because your room isn't insulated against other rooms, just to the outside, so you'll lose a lot of heat to bleed through to other rooms.

    Both are just converting electricity to heat which is already a very efficient process. It's unlikely one of them is significantly better at that.

  • Did my best to reproduce this flag I saw stuck to the back of a truck. Can you ID it?
  • Where'd you see it? What plates on the vehicle?

    • California had a revolt against Mexican rule in 1846 called the Bear Flag. California joined the US at the conclusion of the Mexican-American war in 1848.

    • In 1877 there was the Battle of Bear Paw in Montana against some Native Americans.

    • Salt Like City was founded in 1847 (though doesn't seem to have any bear associations).
