| #18 Meanwhile, at the Lake Fire https://twitter.com/VCFD/status/1294438570480898048 You really have not had the full rural firefighting experience without something like that happening. |

| #11 In fairness to the incompetent state government, we should acknowledge that this heat is unprecedented since at least last summer. |

| #10 Seeing as how the Government critters in Sacramento have stifled most utility infrastructure upgrades over the last 40 years because of some endangered amoeba, unsightly towers, excavation permitting or some grievance concocted at the time, I'm surprised that their system fails as little as it does. |

| #5 Still doing the water rationing? Except for that in use on the fires. |

| #4 Fascist reasoning. Rationing always seem to apply to the little people. Remember the Party-Only stores in Soviet Russia? |

| #3 Rolling Blackouts, also known as rationing. Still doing the water rationing? |
