Many thanks for that update. I know Quayle has been mentioned/quoted by many here. I must admit I am not that familiar with him. Do you (anyone here) find him reliable and credible?

Quayle is a mixed bag. One minute his information seems credible. Moments later he goes off on a tangent from la-la land. I have to apply a patient filter to extract the plausible info from the wacky stuff. The anticipated threat to gasoline stations, pipelines and refineries is very plausible and would exacerbate the current gasoline supply/price problems significantly.

My co-worker met with TSA today to discuss the security of railroad bridges. The coal fired electric plants are critically dependent on a constant feed of coal delivered by rail. Loss of a bridge could cause exhaustion of coal supply sooner than the bridge could be rebuilt. That means a long term power failure for a region. I have the means of building the necessary surveillance tools to detect and prevent that kind of attack, but TSA has no money in the budget for that sort of thing.
