I want an interest free loan from the city too...

Seriously I'm getting sick of this whole thing...On one hand they tell us were not gonna get screwed by them charging us before the avalanche...the next day were told there is no way to avoid it because of how the regulatory commision sets up utilities..? I think this is absolute bullsh*t!

Can you imagine your local heating oil company coming out and delivering fuel to you on say April 1st...Charging you $3.50 per gallon on that day...then sending you a statement at the end of the month saying sorry, the price changed and we have to charge you $4.20 per gallon..?

It's the same thing no matter how you cut it and it's white collar crime! No matter how it is spun, they are doing us wrong.

There is their interest free loan right there...All the folks getting screwed is gonna add up to millions of our hard earned dollars to them for nothing...Just taken from us!

Sorry, getting a bit frustrated with all this...Someone made an interesting recommendation on "the other blog." Went something like this:

Call AEL&P now and cancel your service, then well before the end of the month, get it reconnected and they have to issue you a bill for all of April at the old rate? Sounds good, but you may actually have to go without power for a few days..?

SEACC in the news again...Stalling again...F*ck them!!!

Stalling again after the SIS was turned in...Now SEACC says it would prefer an Environmental Assessment Review rather than the Supplemental Information Report the US Forest Service turned in.

The assessment would take longer to complete than the report but would be more thorough according to SEACC’s Rob Cadmus. *ssholes!!! Don't they understand they've stalled long enough, COUER has given in enough! The hard working folks of Juneau want those jobs!

Doesn't SEACC get it?

The public has until the end of the working day to give their opinion to:

Mr. Pete Griffin, District Ranger
Alaska Region – Tongass National Forest
Juneau Ranger District
