My friend lives in North Carolina and she gets texts and notices from her electric company telling her to cut back due to the strain on the grid.
They're telling them to turn off the hot water heater (takes more energy to reheat the damn thing), don't bake, turn down your heat, don't use a fireplace, don't take baths, whatever. Read the link. It's absurd.

Personally I find it to be a bunch of bullshit. She says "it's different down here". I still call bullshit.
I think she's getting ripped off (along with everyone else down there).
Kbear lives down there and she's never said a word about shit like this. I think Trudi has people or friends there and Trudi, can you chime in if they get notices like this?
This is for extreme cold conditions she says.
Please discuss.
