Oh, this is a brilliant episode in the annals of bullshit marketing: RT Helen Burt ‏@PGE_Helen

@PGE4Me customers in 2013 experienced the fewest electric service interruptions in company history. http://ow.ly/i/4uDxF

Yep. We're in the midst of a record drought. 2013 was the driest year in San Francisco Bay Area history. No rain because we had no storms to bring them, and storms are what cause service interruptions.

But keep on crowin' about it, guys. And I'm glad you didn't blow up any neighborhoods with poorly maintained gas lines.
