Build some nuke power plants, problem solved for many many years.
Or reopen the power plants that were shut down. Natty gas is a great fuel for power plants. Yes indeed

They should black out areas starting with the lowest average household incomes. That would stir it up good!  Or black out cities with the highest concentration of liberals ..

^^^^^ this ^^^^^^ Of course. Can be done safely, cleanly and on the cheap. Makes no sense we are not doing this now! All day.

Been watching the Input AC voltage to the house drop from 123 volts this morning to 114 volts currently (with all the same appliances running). Seems like we may be teetering on the edge? How does one observe this?

He11, I lose power out here once a month anyways! Last week it was 5 hours down. I had the generator out and cranking within 10 minutes.
Advice? Wise men don't need it. Fools won't heed it.

No worries. Gov. Hot Wheels guaranteed the lights would stay on.

I just checked, we have over 3000MW in reserve. We should be in good shape.

How does one observe this? A small plug-in called Kill-a-Watt and look at it occasionally. And chart your findings. You might be surprised.

Or reopen the power plants that were shut down. Natty gas is a great fuel for power plants. I know of one that will not run again! The experts imploded Monticello about 2 weeks ago, the generators are laying on the ground.

that's sad.
On the other hand, I shivered enough out there.

Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
