Electric Limbo 0

So you think electrical service is a no-brainer, huh? They build their dream house, then found out that it was in no-man’s land:

Stan Blackwell, director of distribution and design for Dominion (Power Company), said the company logged a work order to provide electricity to the home Feb. 16. It discovered and confirmed that the home was in Community Electric Co-op territory within 36 days of that date, he said.

From that point on, the onus was on Community Electric, Penn said.

The problem was discovered seven months ago. Neighbors indicate that they have been willing to provide the required easements from the git-go.

They’ve been living in an RV since June 1 (at which time they had expected to be in their new home).

Supposedly the power was to be turned on by today.

Your non-government bureaucrats at work.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
