One of the unspoken problems with going totally electric is PG&E. If you live on the Coastside, or even on the Peninsula, you've received some of the worst service in recent memory this past winter/spring. The severe weather was partially to blame, yes, but the power went out several times when there was no wind, rain or storming.

What to do with no power? Well, with a gas cooktop, you can use a match to ignite it, despite the electric igniters on most modern cooktops. So, dinner can be warm in spite of PG&E's shareholders winning out over reliable electric power.

Regarding Clay Lambert’s editorial about the lengthy City Council meetings (Tribune, Sept. 7), it is a timely piece. I have attended the meetings of city councils, large and small, in person and virtually. None compare to those of Pacifica’s council.

Folks, there are only 42 days left to November election. If Democrats don’t keep a majority in the House and don’t gain Senate seats to have a clear majority, you no longer need to worry about 2024. President Biden will be a lame duck the remainder of his term.

Pacificans and Coastside residents are fortunate to choose between two excellent candidates for county supervisor. My choice is Ray Mueller.
