[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.It looks like everybody else is an expert in Texas weather except for the Texan here. And sorry, Austin used to be a Texas bastion( third generation UT- Pappy was class of 1915), now it’s an absurd group of Silicon Valley idiots. We have an ice storm coming. I’m scared. [/quote]

Maybe start by not blaming the Silicon Valley “idiots” who do not run the state and we’re not the brain trust who decided Texas could go it alone without the national Grid.  I want to be sympathetic.  But you are sitting in a state where Rs have controlled everything in government for 40 years blaming Austin based tech startups.  So, you’re making the sympathy piece hard.  Blame your elected officials. Blame the morons who decided against the national grid,  blame to folks who thought lower taxes were more important that infrastructure upkeep. Blame the only people in the world whose plan is to operate wind turbines in freezing weather without weatherizing them.  Blaming Austin tech companies is silly.

You, and a lot of Texas, will leave this mess with a deep and abiding belief that AOC and the liberal elite are to blame. You won’t upgrade your infrastructure. You won’t join the national Grid.  You will vote for the same morons whose crappy decision making lead to this.   You will hate on the NGD, which doesn’t even exist yet and find a 27 step conspiracy proving HRC and AOC caused this.  And this will happen again next year.  And that’s on you.

Personal responsibility. Get some. [/quote]
