LIGHTING UP
Yesterday, the Los Angeles Times said Gov. Gray Davis was "tilting at
windmills" by urging Californians to conserve energy.
One group, however, is feeling a specific pinch. Marijuana growers who grow
indoors with 1,000-watt light bulbs have power bills "as high as the folks
smoking their product," the San Jose Mercury News noted yesterday.
"The last thing we need now is an energy crisis," noted one grower.
