What are my options?
However I approach it this dead refrigerator is going to be a big deal. I have two choices - repair this one or replace it with a new one. Rebuilt cooling coils are available online for around $500.00. A new refrigerator online runs around $1,000 - $1,300 plus shipping.

Skepticism is Helpful
If you want to notice things that seem wrong, you'll find a degree of skepticism helpful. I take it as an axiom that we're only achieving 1% of what we could. This helps counteract the rule that gets beaten into our heads as children: that things are the way they are because that is how things have to be. For example, everyone I've talked to while writing this essay felt the same about English classes-- that the whole process seemed pointless. But none of us had the balls at the time to hypothesize that it was, in fact, all a mistake. We all thought there was just something we weren't getting.
