Ya know, if this is not terrorism related, it is a good test of emergency reactions. EXTREMELY costly, but a good test. Will out lots of vulnerabilities to be patched, and weaknesses to be replaced, such as apparently the entire mgmt. of Con Edison.

I was thinking the same thing, and further, maybe terrorist types are looking to test the same thing - either a happy accident for them, or a planned mini-event. Donning tinfoil hat now...

Almost like a foot race, who will figure out weaknesses first and fix or capitalize on them, good guys or bad...
