Sounds like you are going to be busy. Is it normal for them to be running daily this time of the year??

Not really. One of our coal plants is shutting down both units for a week. And, I just found out they don't have us scheduled to run tomorrow. But, that can change at any time. I may get another 5:15 call. Glad my relief is here, so I can scoot at 4. Gee, maybe I can get 8 hours of sleep tonight!!

Ken, sorry, I missed this! Yes, and you can thank Mike Riley, and Bo Pelini for that. First time in 56 years a Husker hasn't been drafted.
I just couldn't resist taking the shot.

Good morning guys, happy Thursday! So far, not scheduled to run today, but, that can change at any time. Roy, hope you get over that crap quick, I had that a few weeks ago!

Katelyn's confirmation went well. I even managed to stay awake through it, but, I was tired!

Happy Thirsty Thursday Morning Pat, Denny, Lee, Ken, Roy, George, John, Bud, Neil and Crew.
Roy Hope you feel better soon.

Pat, If they say "Start Up", how long does it take to come on line? Do you start making power when the turbine starts or after it comes to full power? I assume you recover the heat in steam and steam turbine, Right!

Rod, the start up depends upon what Pat had for dinner the night before
