Rightwingers dont let facts get in the way of their often outrageous and slanderous charges, as well as their bull-headed defenses for anything Bush-Cheney-Delay-Halliburton do. Notice how they even defend Halliburton and Enron. They're really far gone. Those two companies alone have cheated tax-payers and consumers out of billions.

Sioux,

You may take economic comfort in hard data like increased consumption of electricity as a FACT showing that energy demand is growing. Damn these facts - they just keep geeting in the way of conspiracty theories.

Astonishing Weekly Electric Power #

Msg: 41245 of 41268

The summer rise in power has occurred 3-5 weeks earlier than usual. Right now the upsurge is being taken care of by nuclear and coal. Once weekly power goes above 80000 (in 2-4 weeks), the "premature" impact on NG consumption should be evident. In July-August electric demand will probably, on occasion, be more than the power infrastructure can handle.
