In this case, more sympathy for the vultures than for the FirstEnergy bloodsuckers. The latter is far from innocent. They could not even provide electricity on the only days that electricity was most important to shore business in Seaside Heights, Lavallette, etc. They could not even tell the residents an honest answer when power was lost, again, during their meeting with the town's people. They could not bother to fix the problems of power loss every weekend until the New Jersey Governor *told* them how they would fix the problem. Why is a NJ Governor a better engineeer than Anthony Alexander, President, FirstEngery? The Governor ordered FirstEngergy to install emergency generators - immediately.

When the NRC conducted a meeting of all nuclear plants with a serious safety problem, all other utilities brought their technical staff. FirstEnergy brought numerous lawyers AND followed that with legalized bribery - $450,000 - to the Republican Party. Then when money was needed to fix transmission line monitors, no money was available.

Their solution to problems is more lawyers. They are not getting (yet) enough lawsuits. What goes around comes around. FirstEnergy may have done more to damage America then any cold war communist in the Kremlin. And they would hide behind lawyers rather than fix the system; pay politicians rather than replace broken equipment.

May every FirstEnergy executive be personally sued. Only the illogical would see this as an emotional response. Having read the actions and technical facts of this company, it just keeps getting worse. FirstEnergy is a classic example of an anti-American organizaton. Watch as they cast blame on everyone else - except their top management. May they get the vultures they deserve - because that is how they fix their customer's problems.
