Oh HELL no. The public should NOT have to pay for PGE's fires.

When I heard about the $100 million fund that PGE set up for the victims of the San Bruno natural gas fire I was hopeful that this would mark an improvement over the corporate bad behavior that we've seen run rampant recently (do I even need to mention BP??). And then I read about PGE proposing a bill that would "require customers to pay all costs of catastrophic fires, such as last week's gas-line explosion in San Bruno, that exceed a utility's insurance coverage". Please tell me that the fund wasn't created to counter the inevitable bad press that PGE would receive after news of this bill got out...
