FERC's lone member invokes Tom Hanks in 'Cast Away'

The lone member of the nation’s top energy regulator is invoking the Tom Hanks drama “Cast Away” to make light of the fact that its been five months since her agency was closed because it doesn’t have enough members.

Cheryl LaFleur, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s acting chairwoman, tweeted a picture of a Spaulding volleyball with a red face drawn on with marker, a la Hanks’ only friend, Wilson, that he created from a Wilson brand volleyball in the film.
