Is the PSC powered by energy bars?

May 30, 2008

At today’s Public Service Commission meeting, a strange thing happened: Chairman Steven B. Larsen called for a 45-minute lunch break.

The utility company representatives and energy efficiency experts stood around awkwardly, not quite sure of what to do.

That’s because recently the commission has rarely taken more than a 15-minute lunch break – just long enough for someone to get down to the lobby of the William Donald Schaeffer building, with its elevators that move at the pace of molasses.

Word around the PSC is that the commissioners run on energy bars. Insert your own joke here.
