BULB accomplishment

I just went down to my cellar and heard the sweet sound of the sump pump running. I recall only too well the last "storm of the century" which was four or five years ago. I spent 5 hours that night moving the more valuable contents in the cellar to higher ground. As the clear skies and the whirring of the pump calmed me tonight, I thought, "Thank you, BULB. Thank you, Terry Nagel. Thank you to all who convinced PG&E that the old service level was inadequate." I seem to recall that PG&E made about $1 million in capital improvements in Burlingame to quell the upraising by the natives. Over the next few years, I'm sure the residents of B'game will give thanks a million times.

    All of the citizsens own Terry a debt of gratitude for all of her hard work getting BULB up and running. PG&E quickly learned that Tery was someone they should not sell short. It did not matter when PG&E attempted to overwhelm the first meetings with PG&E representatives, Terry stood strong and we are the benefactors of her efforts.

    We are thankful this past holiday season to have had electricity ALL through December. I cannot recall a year when we did not lose electrical service at some point during this busy season. Indeed, a big THANK YOU to Terry for spearheading the BULB group and requiring PG&E to provide the level of service for which they are paid.
