The grayout idea is one that actually makes a modicum of sense.
They plan to lower the line voltage everywhere by about 10%.
I think the computers will still work fine on 100 volts. Experts
welcome to jump in here and save me from myself. So long
as the computers still work, I dont care much about the rest
of the stuff.
Ive heard arguments that in some cases a heavily burdened
electric motor may bog down and overheat at 100 volts. If
this caused a fire then the state would be liable for reducing
the grid voltage? Legal professionals, comments?

No apologies necessary, for this was a common nickname carried
and propagated by me for years, bones Jones. the photos you saw
were of my *clothed* self {fortunately for you and the entire web}.
The naked version is scary. I am not one that takes my dignity
seriously however, as if that is not already painfully obvious. {8^D spike
