Energy is job one as I have said. If you go on the NYISO site you see wind is a pathetic 0.44% and all other renewables is only 1.84%. Nuclear is over 10% ( national average is 20%) and we are busy closing these sites ... look at Indian Point to start with.

Why do we care? We are still buying a lot of uranium from Russia and can't manage without it



Russia is doing just fine and if we are not careful we will end up chits creek sans a paddle

As usual NYS is looking to screw everything up

Even putting uranium aside the NYISO management has complained that given the tight NG supply nationally they may not have enough fuel for the winter

So if Russia stops the uranium the West is SOL. We need to be careful in fact I don't know why Putin has not done this

Germany has woken up to the fact that it's political stupidity and liberal bias has led it down the rabbit hole. It needs to get those mothballed NPP up and running and wake up. An early winter and GE industry shuts down and site moderators here will not get their Xmas Mercedes. Can you imagine the ruckus if they only get Caddies
