To the Editor:

I enjoyed reading “Baby Boom Blues” (July 2006). What amazes me is although there is a great need it seems the only people who see the need are the utility companies themselves. The general public and the government are totally unaware of the critical situation this could be if we don’t do something about it. Almost all people take electricity for granted, but when the lights go off and national security is an issue, it will open their eyes to the critical need our companies have.
