Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

as well as the above, some alternative explanations:# Shes's missed something obvious, like lights*.
# Shes's missed something that's hard-wired into the power supply and can't be easily shut off (burglar alarm, central heating pump, outdoor security lights)
# Someone has, by accident or design, tapped into her supply and is stealing electricity.
