Saturday 09/27/2008 Wild Card…

Good morning, Netizens...

Presented as a public service:

CenterPoint reports 17 percent without power

CenterPoint Energy (9 p.m.)
377,000 customers without power
2.258 million total customers
17 percent out

Texas-New Mexico Power Co. (5 p.m.)
4,874 customers without power
115,000 total customers
4 percent out

Entergy Texas
0 percent out*

Sam Houston Electric Cooperative
0 percent out*
*excludes some isolated cases or damaged-destroyed locations

There are a lot of people still suffering from the aftermath of Hurricane Ike in the Houston area, including Galveston and Brownsville, Texas.

As usual, when you use today's Wild Card, always try to remember there are others who may not share your particular viewpoint(s).
