"No Power for you"

[Mister Ed]

2. Yes and no.

There are many, many people of ordinary means, but there are some of extraordinary wealth. When I visited there two years ago, a local told me that in Incline Village, on the Nevada side of the lake, the millionaires are being squeezed out by the billionaires.

That same local also told me that in Homewood, on the California side, Mark Zuckerberg has been buying up all the contiguous lakeshore property with an idea toward eventually converting the Homewood ski area, much beloved by the locals, into a private, members-only resort.

It's hard to guess how all of that will play out in the competition for power (electrical and otherwise).
