I smell record profits! The Bills owner is mega rich and he made his money fracking in Penn. That's not that far away.

So far New England has had a crazy warm fall.  Today was in the 70s.  We have had one or two days of frost in the morning but most days hiat 60s.

My friend keeps saying, "I don't like Taco Bell. Every time I go there, I get diarrhea."

I said, "Try ordering Tacos instead."

Jake Havechek: Eversource is a gang of criminals engaged in evil on a daily basis.


Some time in the last year or two a bunch of people on FB were posting their Eversource bills (well, the part that shows the cost). It's farking obscene. My 650 sqft studio apt with electric heat was $180/mo to heat 10 years ago. It'd probably be more than double that now.

ISONE has on-site oil reserves largely comparable to prior years. They'll be fine; stop being a whiny baby.

I live in New England.
Our central heating failed a week ago. Fortunately there's a really mild spell at the moment. (quite normal for this time of year - google Indian Summer), so the house never dropped below sixty. Today, it's fixed. With any luck.

The article sounds like deliberate pre-election trolling. This country has gone to shiat - it really has.

Jesus FARKING Christ are Americans dumb enough to fall for that lie? There is no way that "New England" would, as a region (wtf) run out of natural gas. All that the USA would need to do is stop burning it all away in Nroth Dakota and New England would be gassed up for the rest of the decade...on next year's output alone.

In case it hasn't been obvious for the past few decades, a good portion of the people in America are dumber than shiat.

Might I suggest a woodburning stove and the foresight to pick up every peice of wood found in summer, and take advantage of every fallen hardwood you find? Usually I'll find a big ground level score of a downed tree to cut up, split, and dry over summer. This year it came from three beetle killed pines on my property and one oak on a caltrans right of way. Caltrans never has any objection to people removing fallen wood where forestry will biatch and moan about it...

Someone should probably do something about that.

Or, it's all made up, in which case no one should do anything. Unless that's wrong too.

Big guys came up to him, tough guys who never cried in their lives, and they had tears in their eyes. Saying, mister petro-conglomerate CEO, please get the fake president to do something... Please make the bad things go away! And he wished he could, but there were too many Democrats in his way to save the poor forgotten New England coal miner or farmer or whatever. Maybe, just maybe if we all vote GOP this can end.

60% of an Eversource bill is transmission and fees.  On a grid they keep defending maintenance on.

Will we be seeing those fees cut if we reach a public safety crisis?

Sending thoughts and prayers, that is sure to keep you warm.

Don't worry, they will just adjust the prices upward, to keep people from using too much gas.

A monthly bill of 2000-3000 should do it, with a thermostat set to a comfy 65.

USA! USA!

So this is what my idiot boss was whining about yesterday. But he said we're out of oil (he heats with oil). Yes, the entire country of America is out of oil, and we need to fire up coal plants until the Earth gives us more oil. Farking right wing loonies.

Thank you Fark for keeping me informed. Not sarcasm, this place is a balm against right wing herpaderp.

In other words, fark these companies for trying to manipulate elections. I'd say fark idiots, but companies are fantastic at manipulation.

Then they'll have to raise the prices because no one is using gas! Think of the poor stockholders. You want them to switch to burning 50s instead of 100s, you gauche monster?
