Subject: My favorite quote


Personally, this is my favorite quote from the entire crisis.? It was in Mike 
Taugher's column of the Contra Costa Times, today. 
gba 
? 

Some observers were incredulous, noting Davis'
?????????????????????????? reputation as a micromanager who keeps
?????????????????????????? appointees on a short leash.

?????????????????????????? "The PUC has been run like his personal cabinet for
?????????????????????????? a year and a half," said Gary Ackerman, director of
?????????????????????????? the Western Power Trading Forum, a Menlo
?????????????????????????? Park-based association of electricity generators 
and
?????????????????????????? traders. "This one's got me floored. The governor
?????????????????????????? once again is a day late. The Oscars for best actor
?????????????????????????? were last night."
