Hi James,

I wondering if you or anyone on the thread would have a follow-up on the CATO take on the price gouging. In particular, what would be a most interesting statistic is the actual dollar amount of the transactions that Mr. Taylor disdains as public utility price gouging.

I feel certain that in the light of day, we'd find that the Enron/Dynegy/Mirant/Duke (etc.) group were charging their inflated prices for months on end, and that the seemingly outrageous public utility overcharges were only occurring irregularly during Stage II and Stage III alerts. Something Mr. Taylor conveniently (for his biases) failed to mention.

Best, Ray :)
