Wanneer gaan dit ophou?
Dan weer moet ek nie eers vra nie want dit raak erger allie tyd.
Next thing blaas Koeberg op en Kaapstad is 'n spookdorp soos die lot
aangaan"
Dan weer "stupidity has it's own rewards ""
Koeberg is back in action

Pretoria - Eskom has issued an urgent plea for South Africans to save
electricity immediately or face crippling load-shedding in the next
few days, the Pretoria News reported on Thursday.
Eskom has announced that it was once again in a precarious position -
it had enough power, just, but a single additional breakdown at any of
its power stations, or a surge in electricity demand by South
Africans, could cause blackouts before the weekend.
Andrew Etzinger, Eskom's general manager of investment strategy, said
South Africa has an overall capacity to produce about 40 000MW of
power.
But about 4 500MW of this is unavailable due to scheduled maintenance
to various power stations, the daily said.
