Kettles are pretty efficient. Good kettles have tungsten heating elements. Even so, it takes so much energy to heat water because of its ridiculous specific heat capacity ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity#Metrology.2C_the_... ).

"I did not really understand the allure of having high-end pens. Don’t you just lose them?" Yes and No. All my cheap pens get lost in a jiffy, and all the expensive ones are kept in their shiny boxes, waiting to be polished every new year.
