Default OT - 10 steps to fascist police state

PBS rocks. I was up until 2am last night for this thing
they did on Enron.



That was INSANE!

I loved the question that Ken Lay got during the employee Q&A: "Mr. Lay:
Are you on crack? ...."

They interviewed a PGE field electrician who said that his $350,000
retirement fund was cashed out at $1200 or whatever was in Gresham. That
office was right down the road. I remember when Portland energy rates
skyrocketted to cover California's power shortage, all because of Enron.
Then Enron screwed PGE employees too. Used to be a great company.
