Interesting L.A. energy wish list:

1) Grocery shop instead of dine out
2) Look for discounts
3) Drive less and travel less
4) Go to movies and watch TV
5) Telephone call instead of going to see people
6) Refinance assuming low interest rates
7) Cut down on luxury and major purchases
8) Fix the old car instead of buying a new one
9) Buy a Ford instead of a BMW
10) Spend more time on the internet

Anything else?

Excellent idea! I know a local area peaking plant built in state which is only operated to feed a major out-of-state SMSA about 3 hours from here. More generation for the home folk. If it's fouling our air and wrecking our land values I say we should get the benefit damn it!

If you can think of a good right-wing loony fringe conservo-speak group to blame it on please advise....real or fictional...hardly matters.
