A rolling blackout gathers no...

Oops! Enron is back in the news, as a tape surfaces showing that they intentionally took a power plant offline in 2001, leading to the shortages and then rolling blackouts throughout the West.
Snohomish Public Utility District in Everett, Washington, released the tapes as part of its effort to void a $122 million lawsuit Enron has filed against it seeking payment for electricity it was contracted to provide.
I guess that people in glass houses should be very, very friendly with their neighbors...
