Power Blackouts and Privatization

Matt Taibbi is probably the most interesting journalist in the English language right now. I first ran across him on the exile, an american emigre publication in Moscow. He is now writing regular columns (that apparently due to the paper's very poor web-indexing cannot be seen as a list) for the NY Press.
He seems to be one of the few to notice these links.
[Update Aug. 29: National Grid mentioned in MT's article as the Parent company of NiMo, is involved in yet another blackout...]
