The problem with Houston is that all the trees that aren’t supposed to be growing so well fell on the power lines. And then Centerpoint Energy (who manages the lines/poles) are negotiating with the thousands of line workers who came down to help - not even paying for the hotels and food! WTF?

This is a company that made somewhere around $9,000,000,000 last year - I think they can pay the guys on the ground actually doing the work.

Wow! I had not heard that. That's just stupid. Pay the workers!
