At the direction of Davis for the purpose of deflecting blame for the 2001 crisis, the PUC wrote a political document based on nothing but wishful thinking. It was a hack job from the start and was timed to boost Davis in the polls when he was floundering.
I find it ludicrous that the ISO didn't know what was going down or did not review the PUC report before it was made public. I believe the ISO knew what was being done and purposefully allowed it to go forward. The ISO is no more independent from the Davis machine than the PUC is.
It's a .pdf file, so you'll need Acrobat Reader... it's free, and chances are good you already have it on your computer. Try the link and see.
Print it using the printer-icon button in the Acrobat toolbar in your browser (not File|Print in your browser's menu). It's intended for double-sided printing using single pieces of paper-- no stapling needed if you do it that way, and saves trees! ;-) Print one side, then invert the paper and feed it through a second time for the second side. Fold, and sally forth to get out the vote!
Give this to friends, walk your neighborhood, take it to stores, give a wad of 'em to your school, hand some out at your house of worship, at clubs, at stores and small businesses...
Let's retire Gray Davis!
Let's show the media and RINOs that "It's the base, stupid!"
Let's show Gray Davis that money can't buy him love ...or re-election!
Freepers and RLC activists can claim considerable credit for nominating Bill Simon, so now let's elect him!
Let's see if I understand. Cal ISO says that Duke is correct that it did not withold electricity on the specific dates indicated, contrary to what the CPUC said. However, the Cal ISO does agree with teh CPUC that generators withholding generation were what casused the problems.
Isn't politics wonderful. The Cal ISO when asked if the CPUC is lying said that the CPUC was wrong in its facts, but that the Cal ISO supported their politicially correct conclusion.
FERC needs to get goind and dismantle the Cal ISO'sleadership.
