>I just have to ask. Is the rate in this email of >8.5 cents per kilowatt hour real somewhere? Our >rate is $.32. It is $.20 in Honolulu. Believe it or not, in San Antonio we pay $.06 per kw. However there's two other companies, also nonprofits in Texas that are even cheaper than we are. In the 1940's the city bought out the power company, so it's non-profit. We always have to fight to keep it that way though. A profit making company tried to buy us out. Our then mayor tried to get us to go along with them. I bet some $$$ went under the table on that one. What you hear about non-profits sometimes is true, and sometimes not. For instance, AAA and State Farm insurance is member owned but is more expensive than some profit-making firms. Even though we're cheap, we have the Cadillac of service. Call them, and you don't get put on hold. They're right out as soon as you hang up. Our lights seldom go out. We're cheap because we use a lot of nucular, solar and wind power.
