it's called Cal ISO, and they run the electrical grid,

because we were using more megawatts of electricity than they could make.

And they bailed themselves out by buying electricity from other states at the last minute,

firing up plants that they long wanted to close,

and they're not able to.

And what's weird is, it was 10 days of the Flex Alerts, 10 days of the 100-plus degree heat,

and 10 days of wondering if a blackout was going to hit.

You had them idiotically announcing one week that they're going to ban the

gas-powered cars from being sold in this state, and then the next week saying, well, you can't

charge your electric cars, at least between four and nine o'clock, which is when people generally

come home from work. And the reason that they're in this corner that no other state is,

is they, as you know, a third of our energy or more comes from solar and wind,
