So now New York Power Authority Chief Executive Officer Richie Kessel is the great protector of the north country power?

The fact is, from his earliest days at NYPA, Kessel presided over a scheme to ship 15 megawatts of cheap Power Authority hydropower, almost all from the project at Massena, to the Brookhaven energy lab. And where is Brookhaven located? On Kessel's own Long Island. I think Northern New York could have used that electricity to create jobs or lower rates.
