You can buy one for $10.50 or two or more for about $7.89 each...They have them on all there rigs too...I suggest buying a couple and giving one away...

Anyone hear what AEL&P did to the guy that owns the Best Western?

Most of his bill he was charged the new rate! Even though the "crisis" hadn't even started yet! WTF!! This is absolute thievery and I'm calling them on it. They pulled the same crap on me in November when they raised the rates! Is this legal? It can't be! I thought they were governed by some public utilities commision..? The very least they could do is not f*ck us in those kinds of situations, even when were going out of our way to conserve there is nothing we can do about the billing cycle? Why can't they start that cycle on the day they raise the rates? It can't be that complicated? My guesss is their accounting software can do that? If was working in their favor I bet they'd figure that sh*t out...

Of course the state figured they can't make a decision on whether or not were in a crisis for at least another month...nice way to make sure AEL&P gets some of our hard earned money irrevocably eh? Can you say ala FEMA during/after Katrina...

In a possible bit of good news...I guess...I got this from KINY Radios site:

(Part of CBJ Emergency Fund may be used to offset electric bills. The Assembly is considering using a portion of the CBJ Emergency Fund to help those Juneau residents that are most vulnerable to huge increases in their electric bills. At last night's Assembly meeting, Mayor Bruce Botelho suggested exploring some form of "bridge financing" for those most vulnerable.There is currently $4.3 million dollars in the CBJ Emergency Fund. The mayor also suggested looking at capping how much sales tax the city is taking in so there's "no sales tax windfall" and in the regard providing some relief for rate payers in Juneau. A-E-L- and P officials are predicting that the 11 cent per kilowatt hour rate will increase to 50 cents or more. The Assembly has scheduled time during Thursday's Finance Committee meeting to discuss several possible recommendations.)

Hmmm...I doubt any of the assembly looked at my site(even after I emailed them) but at least there's a trickle of common sense there..."no sales tax windfall..." You've got to be sh*tting me! What about the sales tax windfall they'e been getting from the price of heating fuel?

The latest figure on 100 gallons of heating fuel #1 is $4.35 per gallon that equates to a $0.22 per gallon to the city...That's what I would call a "Windfall!" How about they do something about that?

About 3 or 4 years ago they were getting around $0.07 per gallon...never have they mentioned that little windfall to the public...As I said last week, this needs to be adressed and judging by our poll we overwhelmingly believe this is Bullsh*t!!!

But I doubt their listening...

Kudos to Gov. Palin for getting back to work 3 days after giving birth! How's that for a tough Alaskan woman!

So Mark Begich made it official...As I said last week, he's about as good a Dem as they come so I have no qualms should he get elected...I know he'd fight for the gas line an to open up ANWR...Of course, who knows what he'll tell the DNP to get their funding?

Uncle Ted will be the first to go it looks like, I don't think he'll be able to hold on at his age and with the surrounding investigation...As much as I know he's done for us, it might be his time? Too bad we don't have any quality Republicans willing to challenge...Eh Merrill? You listening? Or Mr. PC? Why not?
