Dinner at Fadi's and the Power Mystery Revealed

Let me just say that Fadi is an amazing Lebanese cook.  We all went over to his place for dinner Friday night before going out for a while and it was absolutely amazing.  Seafood, humus, this awesome yogurt dish, the pomegranate salad, fresh homemade pita, it was great.  He lives up in the hills near where I almost moved, which would be great with a car... not so good without one.  Glad I ended up in Remera, even if the power does go out every day.

There is supposedly a problem in the supply line on the power front, and difficulty regulating how much of the power produced at the plant goes to the DRC and how much to Burundi.  Their infrastructures are much worse than here so it's hard to regulate the pull each takes on the plant.  So it seems that Electrogaz is installing some kind of monitoring equipment that should be ready in the next two months...  They are also replacing the main transformers in Kigali - this should be interesting.
