admit that they DON"T KNOW what caused the blackout. But that won't stop them from making recommendations.

I think your being a little hard on Abraham, since many of those recommendation were being made two years ago to avoid a situation like Thursday. I think all sides did a great job on the show, the Fox guys pressed as hard as they could, and Spence didn't say anything stupid that he would have to retract. He didn't have any answers to the immediate cause, but in a general way, said what should be done, which would have been the same even if there wasn't a blackout.

You wrote, "I think your being a little hard on Abraham, since many of those recommendation were being made two years ago to avoid a situation like Thursday."
The same recommendations were made by Richardson x number of years ago. That's one of the points: this is just mouth music. Talk, talk, talk. But why try to dissemble about what you know?

I saw that interview. Wasn't it something! It was Tony Snow's show, but it was Brett Hume who pushed relentlessly to get Spencer to finally admit that upgrading the grid may still not prevent what happened last week -- because they do not know how it happened in the first place! It was priceless to watch Brett! It is possible that the Feds do know more about what may have happened, but aren't telling...Either way, upgrading the grid is a good thing, they say.
