National Grid scheme to ration households’ power use at peak times
Oh, thats what they call it. Ration household power use at peak times. Let’s call it by its real name – it’s a limited and organized blackout. I have spent more than half a century on this planet and although I have spent more time than most south of the Sahara, most of it was in the warm embrace of a developed country. If someone would have told me 40 years ago that we would have blackouts as a regular feature of our lives, I would have laughed my behind off. No more – looks like 40 years ago we were smarter than we are now. Because people do still remember the better times.
