Thank you to all you people in flameland that have answered my request
about monthly utility bills.  As I mentioned, people in	San Diego
county are getting a monthly SCREW job by San Diego Gas	and Electric.
My most	recent bill was	$202.

To answer some of your questions:  I have solor	hot water heating.
Insulated all doors and	windows	and only run the heater	1 hr a day
to take	the chill off the house	in the morning.	  My hot water heater
needs assistance when the sun is not out in the	winter months so it
is heated by electricity, BUT I	have a timer on	that.  It runs 1 hr.
in the morning and 2 hrs in the	evening.  as I stated before we
are getting SODIMIZED monthly by our utility company.  We keep
all the	doors and windows closed in the	winter.

ALSO, the breakup of Bell Telephone has	only benifited AT&T and	the
seven dorfs.  If you'll notice your monthy base bill has gone up
signifigantly.	Before the breakup I paid a base charge	of $27 a
month.	Now its	$48 a month.  Now AT&T wants some of the action.
All you	people out there in flameland can bend over and	grab your
ankles because AT&T and	your local phone company are going to
RAM IT RIGHT UP	YOU ASS	before all the smoke settles.  Wait till
AT&T starts to loose their ass in the computer game (because they're
no match for IBM) and want to subsidise	their losses in	your monthy
AT&T bill.  The	AT&T 6300 PC is	already	being discounted.  Thats a
sign that it is'nt selling that well.
