Well, if we are going to talk about tone, the tone in that sentence is
more arrogant than I want to see.

True, but of little concern to most people. Us energy geeks like to
talk about energy, but it ISN'T energy that is important. It is merely
a convenient proxy for things like money, and environmental harm, that
people DO care about. If I could make everyone's house the perfect
temperature, at $10 / year and no environmental impact, no one would
CARE about the energy. And no one would miss the likes of us going on
endlessly about energy. :-)
For the record, BHE rates for residential customers are $0.09273 /
kWh. So, $20 per month is 215 kWh per month. Seasonal variations, and
a $13.08 minimum monthly charge, may skew that somewhat.
If there is/real/ interest in the actual numbers, I can contact my
friends as GO logic, and post them here.
Thank You Kindly,
Corwyn
