Thank God Jim Harvey made the obvious point that everyone should be making - we need point-of-use renewables, not remote power plants and gigantic powerlines. They will remove congestion from the grid, will stabilize it, will provide PEAKER power and will allow us to stay in our homes and protect our wilderness and our water supply.

"Go down the 10" is incredibly short-sighted since it does not address the 120+ "renewable" power plants in the permitting process already in the Mojave. are they ALL going down the 10? What about if the disastrous "Solar and Clean Energy Act" passes in November? is 50% of CA's total power going to "go down the 10?" you can't put a bandaid on a gangrened leg. if you don't address the cause, the symptoms get worse.

LADWP go home and deal with your over-consumption there!
