We cook with | | | Electricity, | | | then the dish washer uses electricity to boil and scrub the | | | dishes, | | | then you got the scraps disposal unit which uses electricity, | | | then | | | you got the air conditioner which uses electricity, then there is | | | the clothes washer and dryer which both use electricity. These | | | are | | | just the basics in almost every home in the city so when you have | | | power blackouts your are basically helpless. | | | | | _______________________________________________ | | | Skunkworks mailing list | | | Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke | | | ------------ | | | List info, subscribe/unsubscribe | | | http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks | | | ------------ | | | Skunkworks Rules | | | http://my.co.ke/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=94 | | | ------------ | | | Other services @ http://my.co..ke | | -- | GG | _______________________________________________ | Skunkworks mailing list | Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke | ------------ | List info, subscribe/unsubscribe | http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks | ------------ | Skunkworks Rules | http://my.co.ke/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=94 | ------------ | Other services @ http://my.co.ke
