I just recently purchased a small fridge and microwave and actually paid attention that nice little Energy Star sticker that tells me how much electricity they consume.
Now the GAO comes along and tells me that after creating 4 bogus companies and 20 bogus products. Including some classic like a gas powered clock radio and this rather clever room air cleaner, that 15 out of 20 product received EnergyStar certification. In some case they product were certified with 30 minutes of being submitted.
I guess we should be happy that folks at the GAO have appear to be doing their job and have a sense of humor. Clearly we need more regulation.
