Let me get this straight . . .

They shut down the Shoreham nuclear plant in Long Island . . .

They halted the plan to run a new Tenneco gas pipeline under Westchester County . . .

They've managed to keep the cross-Sound cable between Connecticut and Long Island out of service . . .

They strong-armed Hydro-Quebec in an attempt to halt the development of major hydro-electric plants in the Ungava region of Quebec . . .

Now they want to shut down Indian Point, too.

And New Yorkers wonder why their utility rates are so high, and why the entire New York City region gets blacked out by a malfunction in the Ohio power system?

80% of that electricity is shipped out-of-state
and has absolutely NOTHING to do with the prices of power in the New York Metro area
