Low Tech Alternative To Glass-Door Fridge

In a previous post, we mentioned that a fridge with a see-through door could help save energy by keeping people from constantly opening the door to see what's inside. That's all very well, but as is often the case, a low-tech alternative exist to solve the same problem: In this case, a board or piece of paper to write the inventory of what is inside the fridge (which also makes it easier to see what's missing and write a shopping list). It's so simple, we didn't think of it. Thanks to Frank from Growing Your Own Food for the tip. Another "duh" entry that could save many megawatts if done by enough people...
