P> Man, I really really hope so. My electric bill is like yours. Pool pump
P> every day and 24x7 AC because stinkin' desert.

I had locked in a low natural gas rate before the entire Ukraine thing where 
the prices skyrocketed.  I was still paying 47 cents per therm when most were 
paying the variable rate of $1.55.  I try to do the same thing with 
electricity, but it has been challenging.  The best I can get right now is 9.2 
cents kwh.  

What is really irritating as well, is I know for a fact there are locations 
using nuclear and have deals with the power company to pay rates as low at 3-4 
cents kwh.  Not sure why I can't get that same deal.

Basically, I'm paying 9.2 cents kwh now.  I just looked at my bill from 3 years 
ago when I was paying 6.3 cents kwh.  The standard service here right now is 
11.1 cents.  That is nuts!  At least I'm paying 2 cents less than the standard 
rate around here.
