Sure, 'cause fixing local utility problems at the voting booth has a
long and studied history of success.  Who do I vote for? The officials
that allow rate increases and, when the utilities fail to fix the
problems, allow more rate increases? Or the officials who refuse rate
increases so that the utilities can't afford to fix the problems?

Bill, we *GOTTA* get you away from the District. Sounds like you've
spent too long in the loving embrace of the WSSC. :)  Out here in The
Real World(tm) things tend to work better.
