Yes-Instrument / Electrical with emphasis on electrical. I was the Super in charge of installation and start up of the control room on several nukes. Built refinery and chemical projects worldwide. Lot of work with power companies when tying in my projects. Fairly familiar with how grid works and it’s hard for me to believe it’s a mechanical failure. To many built in safety devices.

If it wasn’t the “worm” that was attacking computers at the time, then I would look at disgruntled union employees. See this article "Union threatens to desert Verizon" in Washington Times published the day of failure. Same union same area. They don’t like Bush and the dems are pointing fingers everywhere. Just a thought.

Tip-o-the-hardhat to you, sir.

Interesting about the union connection. One more thing that you will never hear on TV.
