Marty, I take your point, but I reckon that the Regulation needs to be regulated here in SA, the power companies seem to get whatever they ask for, no questions asked, and it is the poor consumers that are copping the end result. It is not just a coincidence that the cost of electricity went through the roof here when the system was privatised. I believe that is the case wherever privatisation has taken place, but I can only go on what has happened in SA. Another gem is the cost of water here, don't start me on that mess
