Thank you Carl. It's nice to be surprised to learn that our DHR system is in
this Award-Winning project summarized in the following release by EREN
NETWORK NEWS -- January 31, 2001:

"Energy-Efficient Home Wins ASHRAE Technology Award"

An energy-efficient home -- designed by two researchers at
DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) --
has won a first-place Technology Award from the American
Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE). Otto Van Geet's house, designed by
Van Geet and co-worker Paul Torcellini, uses solar energy
for 90 percent of its energy needs and rang up only $100 in
energy costs for all of 1999. See the NREL press release at:
< http://www.nrel.gov/hot-stuff/press/0401otto.html>.

The Van Geet house was also a project of DOE's Building
America program, which works with the home building
industry to produce quality homes that use at least
50 percent less energy without costing more to build. See
the project description on the Building America Web site at:
