The only time I ever consider the powergrid in this State is summer, or a lighting strike. We don't have wide swaths going without power due to entirely predictable circumstances.
There's absolutely reasons ERCOT and Texas are blamed steadily, and it's because they refuse to interconnect with other systems and refuse to winterize.
I don't see news of people dying around here because of predictable winter storms.
- infecto 3y agoWhat kind of point are you trying to make? Not rude I am just not sure what your point was beyond saying Texas and ERCOT is to blame? Can you state the point and the reasons behind it?
- paulmd 3y agoWhat are you trying to ask here? You seem to have identified the key points of the argument successfully so I am just not sure what the point of making it was besides saying you disagree? Can you outline your reasons for framing this statement as a question?
- infecto 3y agoSorry I hit a nerve. I was not clear what his argument was. That’s what I was asking. My reasons were my own confusion. I was asking for actual counter points to my statements as he responded to me. Instead I saw general disdain for Texas. The issue is indeed partly in the voters hands but I already agreed with that so what was being said. Again sorry to have hit a nerve I was genuinely looking for more substance on the matter. Winterizing is not predictable and the poster said he is concerned in the summer which can be just as deadly as the winter. So yes, I want a further elaboration.
- wtfwhateven 3y agohuh? are seasons not predictable?
- infecto 3y agoNobody was arguing that seasons are not predictable. Extreme weather patterns not found in history are not predictable. Are you trying to say we all should have known this storm was coming? Please enlighten us.
