Yes, without a doubt.
We had two power outages in two days here in southern Michigan last week and didn’t even have storms.
Uh, no.
It was a big honkin' derecho. Look up the term and the news before making such an uniformed claim.
There will be brownouts and blackouts because of EPA policy regarding coal plants. This is not one of those.
It will help feed the anger and hatred of people before the elections just in case it looks like 0bama may lose and needs to order martial law and stifle the 22 amendment to stay in the Oval Office.
The EPA is a treasonous organization and must be abolished. Screw the enviro-wackos.
When did AC become a necessity of living? It was non existent at one time and people lived comfortably. Why do they die from a lack of it now?
We have no representation.
BINGO!
And then there’s the problem of the tree-huggers - a lot of the outages here in south Jersey were caused by trees being blown over on to power lines - in the rural areas this is to be expected, but even in a lot of built up areas it’s becoming almost impossible to keep trees adequately trimmed and controlled because of the greenies - in our town there is an “Environmental Committee” which must be consulted before any tree larger than 15” in diameter is felled, no matter how diseased or unattractive - they’ve eased up a bit because they’ve received so much resistance from a lot of people - one local cop told one of them that if they tried to interfere with what he did with his own trees they’d never know what hit them - but they’re still a major hindrance in the public’s being able to do what in many cases is known to be best for safety and the environment by those with at least a little common sense.....
