and that's the basis of a thermostat. thermostat acts like that. you know what i'm saying? notice we have a wooden handle on here. why do we have a wooden handle on this demonstration apparatus? this metal here, i can just barely hold it there. why is it i just didn't have the metal and hold that in there? why, gang? because the metal part would get hot and the wooden part wouldn't. and that wooden part wouldn't. but why--and what are we gonna talk about today? heat transfer. heat transfer. and the first kind of heat transfer begins with a c and what is it? conduction. conduction. and it turns out that heat would have been conducted to my hand had i held it here and it would have burned me, that's because metal is a very good conductor of heat. how come i get a wooden handle, gang? because the wood is a very poor conductor of heat. but let's not be so negative. instead of saying poor conductor, we can say good insulator. see, see, you can see it the other way around, okay? it turns out in the metal, all metals got a lose electrons. and those electrons, when you start to hea

to be imagine the thermostat. particularly the partnership we have with utilities like pg&e. i think there is someone here from the city of palo alto utilities, and we have worked with for a long time. utilities like back -- you guys are brave. utilities have had the same business model and the same basic delivery for a very long time. to recognize and appreciate that your customers could become real partners is a really brave thing to do in an industry that has been understandably risk averse before. we are thrilled to be your partner in that change and to be providing better services and tools to your customers, to give them more control and in doing so, to build a stronger relationship and help them save. the one thing i wanted to thank were our partners. the second group to thank is government. diane is here. she was commissioner on the puc. have beenn 0 fromrdc -- we have people from nrdc. thanks of great regulation -- regulation gets a bad name these days, but when implemented correctly, it can be a phenomenal force for good, and the state of california has led the way.

she never had used a still in the old country that had thermostat. she would turn the stove on all the way to broil, and it would heat up like a furnace, and then she would turn it off, and then put her stuff in and cook it. if it got too cold, she would turn it on again. it drove my parents crazy, but she made wonderful food. she was never going to learn this technology, but she had adapted to it. we recognize that people do that. if people have something that works, you leave it alone. another issue that people have on computers is -- and it is a real frustration for a lot of seniors -- that things do not show up in the same place. we try to set up people's computers so that it is recognizable. if you are using a macintosh, and it has the dock that has all the controls on it, you set it up so that it is always visible. you put the icons in place so they will always show up, so they are always recognizable. i gave my mother recently and ipad, and it is a brilliant piece of technology for seniors because it only has one button on the front of it. if

we can change our thermostats. and we can teach them a lot about energy efficiency.e, there are usually refrigeration units that go in, open the door, pulled something out, and that is the primary driver in their energy costs. for many of the mom-and-pop stores and small restaurants, they either by these, they are released, or a manufacturer provides them to them. really, their control over that equipment is very limited what is essentially our pilot project does is to select a handful of commercial properties in san francisco, again, mom-and-pop stores and restaurants, work with them to switch out there refrigeration units to higher energy efficiency models and track the savings. if we can begin to build a case for these opportunities to establish more incentives and rebates, then our plan is to go back to the california public utilities commission, the california energy commission, and talk about changing standards and code so that manufacturers who are producing these refrigeration equipment are producing higher efficiency units that small mom-and-pop stores can u

you don't have to do so to adjust that thermostat. temperatures will be downright perfect today, for the first part of the day inland and all day long by the water staying nice and comfortable. we still have to deal with this high pollen count. and i want to point out a couple of things. when it comes to the high pollen levels, you'll notice our hills, they are alive in green right now. that's the reason we've all been sneezing and having to deal with those really, really high pollen levels. as we continuously dry out, those hills will progressively get more and more brown. hence our pollen levels will come down. we are getting into a better state for that next week in particular. high pressure, though, is going to keep things nice and dry and breezy for today. so you want to limit outdoor activities if you have been suffering from the season. you can see here, high pressure is going to move in quickly. tomorrow it's going to set up over the great basin. for today, bringing your temperatures up about 5 degrees from yesterday's highs.

it was an unsuccessful policy, on the one hand, as you know, prices are the thermostat of an economy, they are the mechanism by which an economy functions. putting controls on wages and prices menlt they were shortages and all kinds of other problems throughout the economy. but in addition, again, as mill ton put, it is like the dealing with a overheating furnace by breaking the thermostat. the problem was the fact there was too much demand driving up prices, and simply putting passing a low which is people can't raise prices doesn't address the underlying problem. so the wage price patrol kept prices artificially low for the years. it made it harder for the feds to figure out what was going on. when collapses in disarray because it was created so many problems in the economy. inflation surged as a spring. it was released at the end of the wage price controls. so there a lot of reasons supporting the increase in inflation. i think a general lesson, here is picture of arthur burns which was the chairman of the fed during the 1970s in a rapidly changing world which is a ledge. which is
