Why do you keep wasting links on the AY Report? Do you really believe that anyone reads that anymore (if they ever did in the first place)?
So who am I meant to get angry at now then?
ditto, coned is not longer in the power gen biz.
Ditto, glad to have you on the team!
“cat rescued from tree” gets equal headline treatment as “not enough electricity in brooklyn”
Ditto — to be fair, our electricity is vibrating at 60 Hz compared to the slo-mo 50 Hz they have elsewhere in the world.
verizon dsl also had brownout problems.
To be fair to the NIMBYs, ConEd has a huge lot of empty land on Maspeth and Vandervoort / Varick – which was formerly used for energy production. Its empty, its not in a residential area, its already zoned for them. It has the creek right there too. They have no excuse.
Just talked to my tenants and they said yes, there were problems in parts of Bed Stuy but apparently not on our street. Yes, people are saying that their CFL bulbs are blowing. 🙁
