" That's when the utilities decided to turn the lights off much sooner--or
so the "blackout-bailout" theory goes. To achieve this, Edison paid a huge
dividend to its shareholders, thus ridding itself of any excess cash to buy
power. Both Edison and PG&E also moved assets over to their unregulated
subsidiaries so that these assets couldn't be used as credit to purchase
electricity."
