I spent 25 years as an engineer in the electricity business until I couldn’t take it any more. The constant meddling by regulators and extreme environmentalists, the take-over of utility boards and chairmanships by extreme environmental kooks, the marketing programs to pay customers to use less of your product, the lack of will to meet the old-fashioned “obligation to serve” and instead utilities kowtowing to the idiots bent on destroying what used to be the world’s greatest generating and T&D system, the constant caving-in to NIMBYism. That industry is an awful place to work...unless you are without scruples and become a corporatist who sucks off the government teat and enriches yourself at the expense of the nation’s welfare.

Good riddance. I haven’t missed it a day since I got out.

Evidently Harry Reid is not on schedule with his Solar Companies to keep things up and running!
