Appliance Olympics

Running RefrigeratorGreat athletes may look similar to their competitors from the outside, but as the competition progresses, their superiority becomes clear. The same is true of the participants in the Appliance Olympics, in which a refrigerator, clothes washer, and torchiere lamp bearing the ENERGY STAR label race against conventional counterparts.  They show that greatness comes from the inside – in their cases from their energy-efficient technologies.

 

Energy Star Logo ENERGY STAR is the symbol of energy efficiency. Products with the Energy Star are certified by the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency They use less energy and reduce pollution and energy bills.

 

So get ready, as your host, Bob Lostus, introduces the contestants and gives you a wire-to-wire account of each race. (Though Bob's mouth is moving, his voice is muted, so you'll have to read his comments.)

To run Appliance Olympics, you must have a Flash Player installed on your system. Most people already have the player, but if you don't, you can download it for free from Macromedia's web site.

Enjoy the Washer Races, the 'Fridge Races, and the Lamp Races
