1. Nevada should go below Utah in this case. They are actually east-west neighbors, but if they must be stacked on top of one another, the data make more sense to put Nevada below and Utah above.

2. We are getting killed in the northeast with energy costs. Just saw a post this last week where someone was asking if they could cut grid power and just rub a generator due to the rapid increasing in prices in Connecticut. The scary thing is it looks like costs will only raise over the coming years.

3. from california. its so expensive we got solar.

   we got screwed on the solar contract due to conflict of interest with the power company, so we sell our power for extremely cheap and buy it for huge amounts (we dont have a home battery, so we have to buy electricity at night).

   we really want a home battery so we dont have to pay the extortive prices for electricity here, but havent been able to afford one yet (almost costs as much as the solar panels themselves). we regularly produce more power than we use and still owe for the power we used.
