TP I have read a small amount on this crisis. I was in Redondo Beach in January, which is in Southern CA. They had several power plants right there near the city. Almost all were off line. I have no idea why. However, trans lines age, they get hot, they sag, they fail. I have read their integrity has been challenged and the article, I think AS posted about the Duke guys coming forward, mentioned a major transmission line as being unable to carry the required power to the needed destination. This is a truth. If the lines cannot carry the power, there is no reason to have the plants on line. There are mulitple dimensions to this problem and I refuse to believe it was manufactured by our government. I need a lot more proof than is being put forward by anything I have read here. I design power plants. There are some definitely weird things going on in CA, but manufactured out of the oval office?! No way.
