Oh, c'mon Dick, while Enron has done very well, one of the
players that has benefited the most is PG&E Corp, the parent
company of PG&E. They've been having record profits for the
last five quarters or so. The reason: they operate generators
within California. They even had their (now under Chapter 11)
sibling transfer money to them late last year. The point is:
they all were given a legal way to rape the Californian consumers.
They had no hesitation to do so. They are all the same, be it
Texan, Californian, whatever. It is just the standard way
of doing business.

Carlos.
