California’s grid is set up to supply air conditioning to hot places. Infrastructure is a core competency in this state. And, most crucially, policymakers get its importance.

Wow, that is some of the stupidest bosh I've read this week. California has killed its electrical generation and imports more power than ever. It won't allow coal power to be imported. It is shutting down its last nuke. You won't get reliable power from wind and solar. Where is the mythical power source to run all those air conditioners going to come from?

Besides, true believers are supposed to not use AC which caused GW in the first place according to them.

"Infrastructure competency"? Ha! Under Reagan and Moonbeam's father it was true. Not now.

“California has to import electricity to cover its usage. Even so, during hot weather or power plant outages - not uncommon events - they’ve had plenty of rolling blackouts.”

We have had several of these in the past 4+ weeks.

They last just long enough to screw up up our internet/router, phones connected to the internet, wifi, the tv after we cut the cable and other minor bs.

So I ordered some UPCs from Costco and put them in places to avoid these so called minor rolling blackouts.

Shortly after 6 pm we had a rolling blackout for 15 minutes.

The new UPC’s worked and everything connected to them continued to work.

Now with our smart meters, PG&E can take 4,000+ users off the grid for a few minutes and then rotate the off users until the power supply has been stabilized.

California: I would recommend anywhere along the San Andreas fault.

California is getting ready global warming, while the earth is getting ready to end the warm interstitial glacial period. You can call Californians a lot of things, but smart is not one of them.

And rain has its own issues. More rain means more foliage, which fuels more intense wildfires. And more rain means more flooding: “If you own a house,” Titley said, “there’s now about an 8-in-10 chance that what used to be a 100-year flood will happen to you in the course of your 30-year mortgage.”


80% chance you’re gonna be flooded out of your home? No alarm ism here. No sir.

One observation. These people are Bat Shit Crazy. Not just a little nuts. Full on, call out the guys in the white suits with nets crazy. How can anyone with just a few brain cells left look at a statement like that and not know that these people are either nuts/stupid/crooked/dishonest? Or a combination of all 4?

Well, since you already took the San Andres fault, I’ll go with pitching your tent on algore’s mansion front lawn, and plug your extension cord into his electric supply.
Then you, like he, won’t need to worry any longer!
