OSHI-
"Lodi's power too much trouble?
City leaders and utility officials will be taking a new look at the cost adjustment in the coming months to see if the practice needs to be changed.
"My bill last month was extraordinarily high," said Lodi resident John Johnson, perhaps the billing method's most vocal critic during its year-and-a-half existence. "I can reduce my usage, but I can't do anything about the level of the ECA."
The cost adjustment works like this:
Electric customers are charged for their monthly power usage. Residential, commercial and industrial users pay different base rates based on their power consumption.
But on top of that, all customers pay another flat, per-kilowatt-hour cost adjustment charge. The adjustment changes each month but is applied to all customers the same regardless of whether they are residents or businesses."

Sorry, I found this entertaining. If you squint and ignore some stuff, they're totally talking about the Elf Control Agency. (ECA)

That reminds me of the time when Bleach fans giggled at a news headline that went along the lines of "Hollow threats continue." |

Oh, that's good. I also like to change a word or two with a Five Iron Frenzy song... originally, it's, "Open, swallow, you're so hollow..."
I change it to: "Open, swallow, you're a hollow."

LOL Hollow. xDDDDDD
I also found this very similar to Haru Sari because the Elves create electricity, don't they? :'D _________________ "Mommy! I wanna be a human battery when I grow up!"
