well that cannot be good
Those of us who are unfortunate enough to live within the confines of the People's Republik of Kalifornistan are probably familiar with the concept of rolling blackouts, or at least massive amounts of energy conservation. Probably has something to do with the idiotic restrictions Kalifornistan puts on constructing powerplants within the state, and the fact that a lot of the state's energy comes from... well... other states.
Well, in case you want to keep an eye on how things are going in the state, California ISO has a webpage. I cannot say as though the demand curve gives me a particularly warm fuzzy, especially considering how close it gets to the supply line, but I guess that is what happens when you have overregulation and depend on other people for something you should provide to your own citizens, yourself.
I guess it is just as well that I try my damnest not to use my A/C (thankfully, my apartment has ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom), and I like dark/dim rooms. God knows what would happen if I decided to turn everything on...
