Second, the "price bubbles" and shortages of electricity that you refer to, and the high costs to CA ratepayers, were creations of a) NIMBY attitudes and environmentalist obstruction in CA limiting new capacity, b) a poorly thought out deregulation scheme implemented in CA and, c) the moronic handling of the situation by Gray Davis and his incompetent administration.

Not so. The shortage was created. How come there are no more brownouts in California today? They didn't just whip up extra capacity over night.
