Energy and Enlightenment

Just like most enlightened persons, I am often quite fond of energy, especially whilst attempting to make a lovely cup of tea.  I am sure...

...the Essential Services Commission of South Australia and the Australian Energy Regulator are doing their best to ensure my cups of tea will always be made with freshly boiled water.  But will ETSA? And will the Australian media?

It appears that South Australia's mains electricity supply had a Qantas moment yesterday.  In the name of safety, without notice, a considerable number of persons to the south of Adelaide had their electricity supply switched off in the middle of a heatwave.  Cutting off electricity in extreme bushfire weather should perhaps be treated as an emergency and managed as such.






I do hope there will be electricity available south of Adelaide from 25 to 29 January 2012 for the next World Enlightenment Forum.  I am quite concerned, particularly as there does not appear to be an ETSA account on twitter. However, my own very busy current schedule has required me to delegate the investigation of that matter to one of our trainee copy editors.  Perhaps you are able to advise me, dear reader.
