So basically:
1. There was a lot of obnoxious complaining
2. The DPL decided to look into the problem
3. The DPL investigated and reported on the situation
And you are justifying #1 as a valid way to achieve #2? Do you think that
Martin would not have investigated if someone had simply asked him,
politely? Or perhaps someone _did_ ask him politely, and his action was not
provoked by #1 at all?

There is a history of tantrums, certainly, but I think that the causality
relationship with any positive outcome is weak.
