Much like my wishes for the nimbys of Vermont, I strongly hope that the tree huggers on the left coast all die screaming into the darkness...

But I mean that in a good, supportive, non-confrontational way.... really  [catfight] [sarcasm] [DH] [Flamer]

The recent gas leak in California has reduced their storage to 15%.
The restrictive pipelines cannot support peak load conditions in CAISO.
That means there are blackouts coming, I figure I'll buy my August Megawatt Hours now, for sale later.

For a state that has prided themselves on being innovative, forward-thinking and the hub of new technological thinking: they have fallen on their faces for two decades on future alternative power needs.  They're getting further and further behind the curve, which is fine with the longtime natives.  It continually drives off a dissatisfied percentage of the population to other western states and allow for new dreamers and fresh minds to backfill.
