an associate from new mex. called a couple of days ago.
he had been "called in" after hours...
the windmills of texas quit working. i forgot the reason.. i think it was the storm.
drop in electricity for west texans.
new mexico gets their nat gas (new mex. folks use that to heat) from west texas.
with little elec. west texans started buying up all the nat. gas.
very little nat. gas for new mexico.
--
new mexico has had freezing weather.
100,000's of folks without gas to heat.
so they all to go the stores to buy elec heaters.
per assoc. no elec heaters for sale now. all sold out.
assoc wants elec heater. he can't get one.
but there is huge increase in electric demand because of all the electric heaters and no gas.
--
they are expecting crash in elec grid if demand keeps climbing.
no gas. no elec. extremely cold...
bad news... serious bad news.
i asked him why this wasn't on the national news.
he says.
h___! most folks don't even know where new mexico is!
