A view of the future as globull warming regulations and stuff are passed: After the Storm: The Haves and the Have-Nots
Here’s part of the 1,009-word missive that Bush tapped out on her cell phone:
Over the last 4 and a half days, I’ve seen families struggle over what to eat when most of the food has spoiled. I’ve personally had to wait in line for gas, praying they wouldn’t run out before I got my fill. I’ve taken cold showers because there is no hot water (WT: because there’s no electricity). I’ve gone hunting for elusive ice that has become worth more than gold, and not found any. I’ve seen fights break out over basic necessaries, because nerves are becoming frayed from the stress of the heat and lack of water.
Kate Sheppard pushes the notion that we can expect more of this thanks to hotcoldwetdry because you, dear reader, decided to use your ice maker and record a few shows on your DVR. We can expect long lines for fuel and rolling blackouts and brownouts. I wonder if Kate will complain next week when temperatures are at or below normal?
