"Riding out the Storm"-Old School

SUSIE GHARIB: And finally tonight, many of you are riding out the storm by watching what you spend when it comes to technology. Sarah from eastern Idaho wants to buy a windmill to generate electricity. In this current climate, she wants to pay cash for it, not credit. Another viewer saves electricity and half of her utility bill by giving the thermostat a break. She uses a fan during the summer and puts on a sweater now that it's cooler. And Lesley says she doesn't need the modern trappings of a cell phone or a fast Internet connection. She's happy paying $50 a month for a landline phone and a dial-up connection. And Paul, there are so many great suggestions. We hope the ideas keep coming in to our web site. And also, I just want to apologize for the music in the background. There is a party going on here at the New York Stock Exchange. We have some background music for a program tonight.

KANGAS: Who can party on a day like this in the market?

GHARIB: I agree. I agree.
