A2WHP for the masses

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

Remember, touting high CoP when only one of the temperatures is specified is meaningless. So it's an immediate red flag for me when what is essentially an "ad" just gives one temp (not even saying if that's in or out at that). Similarly something like "works down to -25C" means little unless the CoP given.You can't tell if a CoP is good (close to theoretical) or awful (a small fraction of theoretical) without knowing the temps (those define the theoretical)
There is no possibility of social justice on a dead planet except the equality of the grave.

It's all just ads. How can the masses know unless awareness is raised? I surmise that folk should walk into an IKEA (Germany) store or follow the online trail for detailed specs. This is a good thing and there are no red flags.
