>>We were in San Diego last week and people were telling us they can not afford their utility bills. One person said their electricity bill had gone from $168 per month to over $400 per month and an increase on top of this was on its way.<< My sympathy to Calif. is that (like the NW), energy shortages seem unfathomable. Which will enhance their inability to push the conserve envelope. However, the rate increase is some what needed to absolutely stimulate people to turn the a/c down. There are some excellent conservationists in CA, they just make up a very small percentage. Hope you enjoyed SD and Old Town.
