<<FERC is right: capping prices does exactly NOTHING to ensure adequate supplies.>>

I agree, and this is blowing up into a major regional issue in the western states. One of the newly elected Corporation Commissioners (Marc Spitzer) was sworn in today, and commented on the Cali energy crisis, basically vowing that he would not let "California's problem become Arizona's problem" or words to that effect. The threat of legalized "power robbery" by those who refused to plan (power "debtors" like California) from those who DID plan (power suppliers like Arizona/Nevada/Oregon et. al) is very real in these parts.
