Interesting article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. It seems like the locals are a bit miffed at the way Ohio-based FirstEnergy has been slowly cannibalizing former Pittsburgh energy star Allegheny Energy.
That echoes an anonymous sentiment I saw in an online forum yesterday, where it was said that FirstEnergy is wrecking what used to be a good company. It's all about the stockholder dividends anymore. FirstEnergy doesn't give a damn about its customers, or the communities where it does business.

FirstEnergy just doesn't care if you don't like it, little customers. The company has a monopoly in this state, step in line and take what you are served.
