Pooh Bear said: (quoted from post at 12:10:57 08/03/09) I saw on the local news last night that because demand was lower than expected that TVA was going to have raise rates to maintain revenues. I won't pretend to understand all this. But these are the same people that also raise rates when demand is higher than expected to offset costs.
Demand goes up, they raise rates. Demand goes down, they raise rates.
So what does it take to get them to lower rates?

Here in SE Michigan our local communities are mandating outdoor water restrictions to reduce usage while the Detroit Water Board has been arguing for rate increases because usage is DOWN. Same logic as the TVA. What gets me is the politicians say all that stuff with a straight face. The bottom line is that want MORE REVENUE, any way they can get it.
And Mark, I think the guy meant: put timers on your power strip wall cords to automatically shut off stuff that is plugged into them.
