The Leftist Enviros have taken control. Might as well be Colorado.

Still, 5 cents/kWh is twice as expensive as power generated by traditional nuclear power plants.

... Pay for the convenience I guess ...

...the hot water heater is set at 75, not too much energy.

That sounds more than a bit chilly for taking a shower. Or do you have a separate water heater for that?

That's good to know. I was considering the shrinkage caused by taking 75-degree showers. Ouch! :=)

Thats what happens with communism and that technology is old and now outdated. We have a much safer ways of doing things now. Do you think things like that would happen in the west?

The first time some illegal alien breaks in somewhere and steals one, then breaks it down for scrap metal and poisons 200 people in the process, it will be OVER....

I just can’t see a U.S. Liability Insurance Attorney EVER signing off on something like this...
