So make it a trimmed mean
I think that is exactly what he suggested. Median is a trimmed mean.
kWh is not an SI unit.
While h is not technically SI, it is officially sanctioned for use as a multiplier with SI. So saying that kWh is not SI is more of a half truth.
Money is supposed to represent a store of value earned by an economy's participants.
Only in the mind of people who understand neither the origin nor general use of money. Money has historically been used successfully for trade and taxing.
Meanwhile, all attempts at trying to turn money into a storage of value has has had dire consequences. The Euro simply being the latest in a bunch of total failures by people who are macro-economically illiterate.
The second safest road is where everybody is moving at approximately the same speed with adequate spacing in between them.
Traffic death stats here in Sweden (from 2011) tells a far different story.
* 33% solo car
* 24% meeting cars
* 18% slow moving objects (animals/pedestrians/animals)
* 11% interesections/etc
* 9% other
* 3% cars moving in same direction under normal circumstances.
In 2013, energy was 4 times cheaper in the United States than in Europe, and 6 times cheaper than in Germany.
Using current EUR/USD conversion rates and cents/KWh
Industry Retail Nov 2012 (including taxes):
* Germany: 15
* US Avg: 6.53
Residential Retail Nov 2012 (including taxes):
* Germany: 35
* US Avg: 11.74
If you wander why the German residential electricity is so high, it is because they pay a massive 20.50 EUR/MWh or 27 cents/KWh in taxes.
Seriously, nowhere have I been able to find the how electricity would be 6 times more expensive in Germany than in the US, even with taxes applied the difference is only 2.5-3 times. Without taxes, it is less than 2 times.

I save over $80 a month,
You are saving $80 + Not being brainwashed by ads + Time not spent being brainwashed by ads.
Even as a single minimum wage worker, that is probably more than $200 per month in total. (most people heavily underestimate the value of personal time)
Frankly they need a minimum of a 500ppi display for this thing to be screen-door effect tolerable
The screen door effect is a result of pixel fill rate, not DPI.
