OK people. The entire USA is having a heat spell. This means
everyone will be turning on their air conditioners, fans and everything else electrical. Of course, as always, screw your neighbor. They dont need to stay cool, just YOU. Remember, YOU are the center of the universe, so hoard your electricity. Use as much as you can. Turn on every electrical device in your home, and dont forget all the power tools and other devices in your garage. Turn it ALL on. Hoarde, and hoarde more. Lets see if we can black out the entire USA. |

Okay, class. Time for your spelling lesson:
To store a way a chest of golden treasure is to 'hoard'. A "horde" of filthy pirates might steal what you stored. You just can't have it both ways, though. (And as far as the crankiness, well, if the PoCos would beef up the grid a bit rather than play the stock market so much, perhaps there'd be no problem) |

Nice and cool here in the Sonoran desert. We've had the AC off for a
few days now, and my rainwater storage is close to full capacity. I'm still screwing my neighbor, though. Tom wrote: OK people. The entire USA is having a heat spell.

Yes, we just finished with that in CA. It was the hottest that I can remember, and the electric bill (and I live in a fairly small house under 1300 feet) was $434.00. Needless to say, I signed up for the year round bill today that makes it the same price every month, and then they will reconcile it one way or another every June. Cheri |

After reading this message, I decided it was time for me to hoard as much electricity as I could. I just purchased six 1000 foot spools of wire at Home Depot. I now have all 6 of these spools connected to my electrical panel. If my figures are correct, these 6 spools should store one half years worth of electricity. If I can get my Visa credit limit raised to purchase six more, I will have a full years worth of power stored on those 12 spools in my basement. I want to insure I have enough power in storage and I want to do my part to screw over my neighbor and everyone else who is getting in my way in my world. |

Make sure your spools of wire are submerged in at least 6 inches of water. That will help extend the storage time. Great plan. Good luck. |

Yeah, and also make sure you get the 22ga.
It'll hold a lot more than 4ga., 5 times more. What a waste of school taxes........ Any how, I often wonder what the cumulative Effect of shutting down ALL gas powered Devices here in the States, for one day, two days, would be?
