I think he is full of crap on his bill going up 500% and that nat gas is still up 500% in CA. Here are some figures from my PGE bill:

July '01 = $.904 per therm
June '01 = $.786 per therm
May '01 = $1.08 per therm
April '01 = $1.14per therm
March '01 = $1.34 per therm
Feb '01 = $1.58 per therm
Jan '01 = $1.72 per therm
Dec '00 = $1.05 per therm
Nov '00 = $.92 per therm
Oct '00 = $.89 per therm
Sept '00 = $.79 per therm
Aug '00 = $.75 per therm

As you can see, there is quite a bit of variation, and some of the numbers have a 100% swing. Not sure where he is getting the 500%.

That said, maybe there is a higher rate for people who exagerate greatly to make their points.
