Energy Warning
Running time	0:35
Appears on	Geogaddi

Energy Warning is track number 11 on the Geogaddi album. The bulk of the track is a sample of an 1979 public information advert on the topic of energy conservation by the North American youth organisation, 4-H.

Samples/Lyrics

"Energy is becoming one of our country's greatest concerns, if we don't start working on energy conservation there may not be enough energy to go around by the time I'm a parent. We're going to learn about how we can solve some of our problems through alternative energy sources. You can learn more about energy too - call your county cooperative extension service for more information. Conserving energy is everyone's responsibility. Call 4-H to find out how you can do your part."

The garbled burbling noise heard on the track sounds similar to the "Havana Gurgler", a shortwave radio jamming station used by the Cuban government to render the unwelcomely democratic Radio Marti unlistenable. More information.

-* John 3:16 features Nicodemus, who if the last track [[1969]] has to do with Mrs. Frisby and the Rats if NIMH, becomes the focus here for the next few tracks. (Nicodemus brought myrrh and aloes for the embalming of Jesus, suggesting Nicodemus as subject matter extends until at least [[Opening The Mouth]].<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicodemus</ref>) John 3:16 can be thought as three chapters + 8 plus 8. Since H is the eighth letter of the alphabet, both 3:16 and four chapters + H would have FIVE H's in total.
