    When supply and demand is crap

    Reminds me of San Francisco's two-year drought in the '70s when the water company urged efficiency, and, as you might well imagine, boy, were San Franciscans efficient. MUCH less water used. So the water company raised rates.

    (During the second year, walking along a Noe Valley street one evening, the fog rolling down off Twin Peaks with unusual aggression, I put up my umbrella. A guy across the street shouted at me, "Hey, you! Put that thing away! We're having a drought!")

    Best,

    Monty
