We've found another reason to laugh at the power companies today! A friend of mine called me up to read to me the mother of all run-on sentences she found in a FirstEnergy press release. This friend has been known to ding me on my long, complex sentences from time to time, so we found this particularly hilarious! She followed up by transferring the gigantic sentence into another program and having it calculate a word count. 711 words - one sentence - lots of commas!
The colossal sentence appears as part of FirstEnergy's "forward looking statements" down at the bottom of this press release. We talked about PATH-parent forward looking statements not too long ago here.
So, what's changed in their forward looking statements regarding how they describe PATH's risks?
"... the status of the Potomac-Appalachian Transmission Highline (PATH) project in light of PJM Interconnection, LLC’s efforts to determine whether the need for PATH should be re-evaluated and the related suspension of work on the project, PATH’s rate of recovery at FERC," blah, blah, blah,
"the uncertainty of the timing and amounts of the capital expenditures needed to complete, among other things, the PATH project as a result of its current suspension status," blah, blah, blah,
They finally acknowledge that their FERC ROE is in serious jeopardy. Isn't that nice?
The 711 word sentence, brought to you by the wordsmiths at FirstEnergy. I can't wait to see their brainless transmission line siting strategy power points! We're sure to be in for a rare treat!
