Hey man, alot of people (like my family) are renting, having a heat pump is out of our control, if it didn't have one when we moved in, we don't get one, not everyone can afford the luxury of owning a home

Wonderful AIFS run.

Different climates. Western WA doesn't get nearly as hot... Though it's gotten worse recently. Even worse trends in Western OR. Can't compare Eastern OR which is literally an arid part of the region...

I would assume it’s the initial cost for many people. That and from many people I’ve talked to they just don’t seem to run very economically. I hear people with heat pumps spending 300-400 a month during the winter to heat their homes. We have our hydro on equal payments of $130 per month and then we mostly heat with a gas fireplace in the winter that adds another 50-75 bucks a month.

A few years back I had a health scare, my doc (naturopath quack) thought it might have been an infection (it wasn't). I took Azithromycin... That was horrible. I remember having high heart rates and skipped heartbeats. I quit that med before even seeing the doc again, it took around 3 months to fully recover. In the end I think my other issues were related to lifestyle. I'm taking care of myself better these days and I'm feeling normal.
