And how much did customers' bills go up after such a 'sorry' admission? Maybe more than after a hurricane in the Gulf but less than if they had had to make some sort of reparations as well as moving their plant. Just what is 'atonement' worth now that Democrats have edged the "Rethuglicans" out of power?
All Best
