I'll try to send a picture of our own energy poles to you. I do hope that you can provide some information on how to conserve our energy more. It will be a big help for our division, since we've had power outages ever since. It's a good thing that I subscribed to your blog, because I keep on learning new stuff. I'll keep a reminder to send you a picture of our own energy posts for tomorrow.
