#4 His house is something like 20 times the size of the average American dwelling as well... or am I thinking of the former honourable Senator Edwards?

#6 The current issue of Wired has an interesting article on someone who set up a backyard hydrogen fuel cell system that used solar power to generate hydrogen, then stored it in a home propane tank for when it was needed for conversion back to electricity.

With big improvements in solar cells, we are soon to reach the magical point where in much of the US, a home could generate its own power with off the shelf equipment, only needed grid energy for peak consumption.

#9 I thought of another possible excuse. Gore may claim that most of the electricity goes to operate security related equipment that the secret service requires him to have.

#11 Well, I can understand the electric bill. Doesn't a large part of the internet terminate in his house?

#12 Of course regular rules don't apply to the Holy Elite Priests of Global Warming like the Gorebot. He's special.

#14 It's alright - Gore pays a group of children in South America to hold their breath. So, he's actually carbon neutral.
