[89 Cobra LX]

Enron formed when a mid-sized Texas energy company merged with a mid-sized Nebraska energy company (located in Omaha) in the 80s.

Omaha bent over backwards to get the new company (Enron) to keep it's operating center in Omaha. The CEO of the company strung the city along while the company finalized details with Houston to be the company headquarters. This happens a lot, but the way Mr. Lay handled the whole deal was very ugly.

Looking back now, it's probably for the best that Enron moved to Texas. Omaha probably couldn't handle a company of that size going down the tubes. Not to mention the black-eye Omaha would have gotten over this. Unfortunately many lives were effected in Omaha due to the ties some still have with the company.
