I actually conserved electricity on purpose today.
Yesterday the radio news said the local electrical generation stations were cranked up to 100% of capacity and they barely avoided rolling brownouts. Today they thought we might not avoid brownouts, so would everyone please conserve energy between 15:00 and 19:00? And I did.
Because rolling brownouts when you want A/C STINKS.
Self-interest: more powerful motivation than economics or the greater good.

If the Obama administration had their way, we'd have been in rolling BLACKouts for days already, and next year we just might be, thanks to EPA regulations coming soon to Texas
. . . because Texas hates Obama and the feeling is mutual.
