Don't take this the wrong way, but frankly I would not be happy if my colo
providers started implementing wider temperature and humdity limits. I pay
large amounts of money for colo and I want what I am paying for. This mess
was caused by California regulators and very very greedy PG&E who gambled
on lower rates and lost. PG&E should be forces to liquidate other out of
state assets and buy power at the market.
