Are you keeping up with this natural gas shortage in Calif.? They are about ready to have a real crisis. There's no problem. Just put all of the Hollywood left-wingers (that's most of Hollywood) in a room and suck out all the hot air -- will keep the whole state warm all winter. Seriously, politically there's no way they will let Calif go dark. They'll steal electricity from everybody else (already are from us) first. Too many votes there.

I am not keeping up with California at all. I had heard yesterday, maybe on NPR, that the reason for declaring a state of emergency was administrative, so that they could take remedial measures that were otherwise not open, like buying electricity from the East, and that otherwise there wasn't a factual emergency.

And some links for one of the groups mentioned (IAC)...Police Chief Ramsey in DC seemed to do a fine job this last April when I was in DC and saw some of the "protestors".... Really do wonder just how these people can call on, and get, "busloads" of people to drop everything, and come to DC to protest....WHO IS PAYING THE BILL for them??? And Ramsey Clark ought to be ashamed of himself! iacenter.org Founded by Ramsey Clark, Former US Attorney General Information, Activism, and Resistance to U.S. Militarism, War, and Corporate Greed, Linking with Struggles Against Racism and Oppression within the United States commondreams.org commondreams.org
