Here we go with the Texas grid again. No matter what they get hit with they insist on remaining independent. Well actually it's the cold that gets them, but they have a problem they're not dealing with none the less.

Much as I'd enjoy the rural environment and wide open spaces, it's 74F at my beach house right now.
