I work 2.8 miles from my house and it was such a non event the inside of my car was dry even though I left 2 windows down.
It didn't even rain at my office, but that's pretty inconsequential. It was a very small localized band.

No I don't work for Entergy, just trying to be somewhat logical about a shitty situation. Major metal transmission lines don't just fall over on their own, something big is necessary to cause it. And when they go down, there's going to be pain points.

The rain was here ten mins. The wind wasn’t even tropical storm strength.
You sure? I was at the office but everyone I spoke to said it felt like a 15 minute hurricane. It ripped a major transmission line out of concrete, it had to have packed something.

A major transmission line fell two days ago. They have been rerouting us to a different substation as a temporary fix. I'm no expert but until that transmission line is fixed I think you can expect spotty service.

They worked in pouring down rain all yesterday. I watched them do it. Even tried to offer tents but they declined.

This is unreal
Yes for the 3rd day in a row but pretty sure yesterday and today were planned outages to do repairs.

In your 40s and only know good vibrations? I probably wouldn't admit that.

Cashless only is the far superior scenario.

I get the notion that's she good about appealing to the right, but it's not like her message is controversial. It's not letting dudes compete against girls, something that would be considered obvious just 20 years ago and didn't even need to be said.

disagree with your friends assessment of Paris. I found it super clean, only homeless I saw was around Eiffel Tower. I loved the city. Only negative was afew rude folks.
Agreed. For a big city I thought Paris was much cleaner and lacking homeless compared to big cities here.
I also absolutely loved Rome too.

No that has nothing to do with the economics of the deal. Like I said they could just as easily blow all the money from the proceeds of the yearly meter revenue too.

Oh I know, but most seem to not understand. Hell even if they only invested half.
Now did they do that? No clue, but they could just as easily piss away the money if they don't make this deal and is a completely different discussion.
And 4% is really conservative, put in 8% and see what you get.

If you understand time value of money at all, this is a fantastic deal Chicago made.

WF coach issued an apology, probably a big mistake.

Any opinion Keith Law has should be immediately dismissed. If you find yourself on the same side as him in a debate, no matter the topic, you may want to reconsider.
