Jesse Fewer Watts’ Rounds Up ‘Incan Derek’ For Vermont Efficiency

We’re assuming these three Kelliher Samets Volk-created commercials for Efficiency Vermont, an organization which encourages people to use compact fluorescent bulbs, were purposefully created to be bad. If not, we have no other explanation for why the they are so goofy. See one of the spots here. The other two are nearly identical.

Along with the three spots, the campaign includes local newspapers, online ads and a website on which “Jesse Fewer Watts” (get it?) and his Western buddies ride into town to collect “Incan Derek” (that’s stretching it) for his crimes against light bulb efficiency.

OK, OK. It’s for a good cause. We’ll stop complaining.

Researchers who study charisma have found it isn’t a fixed trait some people are simply born with, training people in a specific set of verbal and nonverbal tactics — vivid metaphors, rhetorical questions, deliberate pauses — measurably increased how charismatic they were rated by others afterward.
