Great post...makes ENRON look small. Two years ago the demarat Gov.of Oregon wanted to destroy three dams on the Snake river to "save the salmon". This year we had a record salmon run, best since 1936. When asked how that could happen, he said that most of the returning fish were hatchery raisied. Now a federal judge with a brain has ruled that there is NO difference between wild and hatchery salmon and all the fish must be counted to determine if a species is endangered. The wockos are going nuts.

I have been convinced from the beginning that destroying dams and reducing water flow over existing dams was nothing less than collusion between the greens and the power companies to raise rates. We had the cheapest electricity in the country. This situation didn't suit either the power companies or the Greens, so they engineered a power shortage.
