LOL!! I wish I could harness my anxiety as well.

Most of our power plants in Florida are Nukes, what is blowing my mind is they are building a new plant between West Palm Beach and Lake Okeechobee and its going to be natural gas fired. I don't get it.

I paid $5.46/gal for diesel over the Memorial Day weekend in Monterey.
