I've heard mumbles that the per kWh rates from 
Bonneville in the locations along the Columbia 
are in the sub-4¢ range.

Grant county is seeing a huge fiber building boom 
as a result. It will be more wired up than King 
county soon. Woody was here last night and 
remarked (feel free to correct me if I misquote 
you Bill) that it was funny that nowadays 
"network geeks were more interested in kilowatts 
than kilobits"
