Delaware Electric Cooperative "Peak Alert"

“Peak Alert”

TOMORROW

Be Energy Aware Between

7 A.M. & 9 A.M. TOMORROW MORNING, November 19

Between the hours of 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. tomorrow morning, November 19 we are asking you to turn off all unnecessary lights or appliances that may not be needed.

In addition, whenever you can, please delay major appliance usage such as dishwashers, washing machines and clothes dryers, and if you can, delay any hot water usage.
By reducing our peak demand during these hours we save energy resources and the environment.

We need your help. Together we can “Beat The Peak”
Thank you.

Hot water usage? Yeah..right! Like I am going to take a cold shower before I go to work so some welfare person who gets a utility check allowance per month, pays 0 rent can use MY hot water allowance when they roll out of bed at 2 in the afternoon?

WHAT is a "morion"? I'm sorry, but I have a tendency towards Webster's Dictionary, and it's not in there. Aren't we an English speaking nation here and going by that book/ Did someone write a new new Alabama version?
Speaking on the issue here, why just tomorrow morning? is it that people may want to warm up the house after conserving overnight/ Should I have "built up" my heat overnight so there would not be a start up surge, as business starts up and turns on lights for the day? Or is Regis and Whatzername that popular?
What is the reason here?
