That fine is looking like a bad idea.

“Let’s see...leave the dead undergrowth in place and appease the fruitcake “environmentalists”, or have electricity and enjoy refrigeration, hospital care, etc, etc...hmmmm”

Don't decaying plants and trees give off CO2? Irony.

Aren’t practically all of the forest fires started by things other than power line sparking? If that’s the case then why not just leave the power on all the time.

Your snowflake virtue signal fails to impress.

Look up "virtue signal" so you can use it correctly next time.

Once this demand is made by the politicians it frees the utilities from liability. This what the utilities want.

HOnestly, I don't see it as PG&E's problem anyway. They weren't allowed to cut underbrush by law. When maintenance wasn't illegal, there wasn't this kind of continual problem.

I know. I’ve seen it.

It’s enough to make a green snowflake evaporate into the desert air.

“ If you could nuke LA and SF, the state might be Republican...”

If you could nuke D.C. while Trump was out holding a rally and Congress was in session, most of our problems would cease to exist. Amazing to think...

My response was to your snide response to rxsid.

Mr. Robinson and other people in ‘difficult’ states have their own good reasons for remaining.

No power to charge your PC car? And the fire’s getting closer... or you just have to go to your job and the ‘electric’ car won’t move? LOL

Pardon me...

It doesn’t sound as though there is a fix in the works either. This will cost companies customers a lot of money.
