Re:rolling blackout


You're a moron. You should get your facts together before you start spewing your liberal crap on a totally unrelated web site. I've lived in CA my entire life and it's people like you that have caused most of this state's problems. We Californians use less energy per person than any other state so don't tell me about conservation. You're probably against nuclear power also. Did you know you get exposed to more radiation during a dental x-ray than escaped from 3 Mile Island? Get your facts together before you defile our website again.
