airlifted to Texas three days ago are still sitting at the Airport,
waiting for the government of Texas to pick them up and take them where
needed. "Yeah, we are from the government we are here to
help". The scariest words you can here during a crisis. Maybe a
little better coordination might have helped. They should have hired
Walmart to distribute the generators. Or Texas could have hired
Trump to toss rolls of paper towels for Texans to burn for heat.
I'm sure the incompetent, anti-government loonytarians who run Texas
were informed the gensets were on the way, where they would land, and
when. You were whining the other day the Biden Admin wouldn't get
anything to Texas for months or some such nonsense. You were
wrong...as usual and again. Was there any coordination at all about
where these were going to go and who was actually equipped to use them
or did FEMA just throw them on planes and say "you figure it out"? You
don't just back wire a 100KVA pad mount generator through a dryer plug.
Any place set up with emergency wiring and the facility to connect a
generator already has one. It won't help much if they burn down the
building they are trying to provide power to. This is not like
stringing some orange cords around your house and powering up the
trusty old Honda. I bet the problem is the desk jockeys at FEMA are as
clueless as you about article 700 of the national electrical code and
they think you just plug these things in and go. They might have use
of the fuel but Texas has plenty of fuel, trucking it around is the
problem. Getting it from the FEMA drop site may be as hard as getting
it from the bulk plant. Those are just facts I will wait to hear the
explanation before I let my knee jerk like the clueless people like
Jason Easley who wrote this story (carried by a dozen outlets). His
bias was exposed when he said "the republicans" instead of "Texas
emergency managers" or any other neutral moniker. The Republicans run
the Texas government and the Republicans let the Texas power companies
get away with no build-up of infrastructure or proper systems. Stop
making excuses for Republican incompetence.-- Bozo Binned: Herring, Bert

Fat Harry doesnt know whose side he"s on. Big government, the rich
and powerful, or the little guy. The only thing we know for sure
is that Fat Harry loves himself and young girls.


Maybe it is a lesson to be learned. You need to plan to be self sufficient
for a couple weeks. California realizes that and advertise be prepared for
natural disasters.
