Neeld Estate at Plum Point was without AC power this Sunday. I’m told the power went out around 2:00 PM. We know it came on just after midnight on Monday. What we don’t know is why? There was no weather to speak of and no apparent reason for ten hours without power. Events like this are are less chronic than they used to be but still, in the 21st century and after paying OUTRAGEOUS power bills to Barely Gas and Electric this Winter I don’t expect this kind of inconvenience. What do you think?
