Certainly, but you first.
You posted to Joe Clark: Uh, no.
It was a big honkin' derecho. Look up the term and the news before making such an uniformed claim.
Er, uninformed claim.
without posting links corroborating your position.
Considering Joe Clark posted several links and sources, you will back up your name calling fully and respectfully before I do.
As I said, pound sand.
My opinions exactly fit the facts regarding grid maintenance, improvement, tree trimming and environazi/EPA interference in the same.
Please show where there has been such interference in tree trimming. Usually opposition is more by homeowners who don't want their pretty trees chewed up, but that is more short-sighteness on their part.
But the larger claim by Joe Clark is that the EPA's coal mandates have something to do with this particular outage. They don't.
