Here's the story on the Enron rip-off in Oregon:

Oregonian: The Collapse of Enron

Cooper [PGE's new CEO] downplayed the furor that has arisen over Enron's past trading strategies, which critics have blasted as manipulative, greedy and base. He said PGE, under pressure from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to explain any ways it may have aided Enron in carrying out these strategies, has been unfairly drawn into the investigation.  "I don't believe at the end of the day FERC will find any problems here at PGE," he said.  His greatest sympathies, he said, were toward Enron and PGE employees, *who lost millions in retirement savings when Enron collapsed.  "It's an unbelievable shame, and a terrible outcome," he said.

Jas 5:1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
4 Behold, the *hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

You're sure full of doom and gloom this morning. This thread is about Mt. Hood and volcanoes, not Enron.

The fact of the matter is that Mt. Hood has several earthquakes around 4m every year, and has had as long as earthquakes have been recorded.
