NC WARN, a progressive environmental non-profit, is teaming up with an unlikely partner: the John Locke Foundation. The two organizations share a desire to increase competition in the power industry and challenge Duke Energy's monopoly on electricity in the state. 
 

 The two groups will hold a public forum tomorrow in Raleigh but first Host Frank Stasio talks with Jim Warren, NC WARN's executive director, and Jon Sanders, the John Locke Foundation's director of regulatory studies. 
 

Longtime NPR correspondent Frank Stasio was named permanent host of The State of Things in June 2006. A native of Buffalo, Frank has been in radio since the age of 19. He began his public radio career at WOI in Ames, Iowa, where he was a magazine show anchor and the station's News Director.
