Anyone know the latest on this news? Looks like they might want to opt out of contracts on the grounds of default and then sell into the California spot market, at MUCH higher prices?

PG&E: Western Gas, Goldman Sachs to halt Calif. natgas sales

New York--Feb. 7--0932 ET--Western Gas Resources and J. Aron, the trading
arm of Goldman Sachs, will cut off supplies to California when a Department of
Energy order mandating sales to the state expires at midnight, Pacific Gas &
Electric said. The two suppliers represent more than 10% of the natural gas
used by PG&E customers.

The utility said that if any of its gas suppliers stop delivery, the shortfall would have to be covered by whatever it has in storage. Currently, Pacific Gas & Electric has about nine days of gas in its reserves.
