— Storms knock out power in Chicago area and disrupt flights. DD: What exposure do you have to weather-caused power, internet, and phone outages? Overhead lines about 200 feet long to the west of my home at 915 Cove Court in Wheaton expose me to weather-caused power, internet, and phone outages big time. The lines are in a utility easement on private property that is full of trees that have not been trimmed for decades and pull the lines down and to the north. I have filed a “tree and vegetation request” with ComEd, and outstandingly, a ComEd employee came out yesterday to inspect. According to Xfinity and AT&T, they cannot do any trimming until ComEd is done. It would be great if all the lines would be put underground. The last outage caused me big problems because my 17-month-old 24kW Generac failed.

I am all of the aforesaid and all of my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s. My critics/opponents have always made me pay the price of AA and DEI big time.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the course of time, historians have tried to downplay conservative doctrines and their influence on cultures. They commonly utilize race, class, and gender history in order to decide which facts to report and which to omit. Why is this ideology flawed? In recent years, some historians have greatly emphasized race, class, and gender in their writings, as opposed to the white Protestant males who are the usual focus of history books. Rather than Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry, the emphasis is on the minorities — women, the poor, or people of other races. It is now about their thoughts, feelings, and actions from bygone times. This research venue once seemed fresh and innovative prior to critical race theory being commonly used during the early 2020s. Unfortunately, a few of these historians selectively and creatively interpret these subjects, skewing reality. To them, what matters is “representation,” not necessarily recounting the past accurately. In their eyes, arguments showing favoritism to some people groups, incorrect research, and strange interpretations are justified. With a nose-to-the-grindstone-publishing-academic-papers lifestyle glorifying their own social goals, they use faulty arguments, twisting facts to fit their flawed theories. Over-emphasis on race, class, and gender is just one of the many incorrect ideologies circulating today. One infamous example of racial over-importance was the 1619 Project, which changed the year of our nation’s creation to 1619 instead of 1776 due to enslaved people being imported to America before the Founding Fathers. The forced arguments that estimated our country to have been born in 1619 were later revealed to be completely wrong. The heritage of Indigenous Peoples’ Day and Columbus Day led to a similarly intense argument. Christopher Columbus shaped history, but allegedly mistreated many Indigenous people during his discovery of America. Indigenous Peoples’ Day was made as a replacement, while Columbus, Oh. had been sued to reinstate Columbus Day.)
