At the beginning of 2001 I created a web page covering the California electricity crisis. I started with a suspicion and a few hints of evidence, that the shortage was phony and being created to manipulate the market.

In June, whistleblowers verified that supply was being manipulated to raise prices. From then on the story turned increasingly from one of economic manipulation to one of political manipulation. The amount of crookedness involved was beyond all my expectations. By late November, as bombs were falling on Afghanistan, that page reached this conclusion .
