Virginia Postrel has an interesting little blog note on the magical -- and deeply selfish "progressive" thinking of Californians. But there is also this note of (shocking!) good news:

On a positive note, Steve [Postrel] dropped by UCLA today and a former colleague told him that California's energy crisis disappeared as soon as consumer electricity prices rose. Now peak prices are very high, and people are careful about what they use. The price system works! It must be magic!
