Interesting. The record of events is already being stirred up. It'll be interested to see if any agency puts together a comprehensive public timeline right away, or if they'll have to doctor the record.

Certainly, its easy to do. A crazy friend of mine 30 years ago threw bare wires with weights on the ends over long-distance high-voltage lines, as a lark, enjoying the sonic-boom like explosion that rolled across the valley when the wire turned into plasma. As you posted, the military throws large quantities on lines to knock them out completely. The question would be who, and what would they gain. If its anyone nefarious, we should soon see evidence of some of the usual fascist legislation, or very large dollars flowing into someone's pockets.

As far as legislation, there are parts of Patriot Act II being enacted piecemeal in other bills. If someone were to research it, there may be something considered not easy to pass, that will now be proposed once again. We'll have to watch for that. I'll send a query off to one researcher I know.

(We should start a rumor that its actually a test by the little-known "Internal National Security Activation Network for Emergencies" to help identify vulnerabilities against terrorism, and see how long it takes for someone to figure out the acronym.)

Any of your propeller head friends heard about this wild story?

Alex Jones says regardless of whether it was provacateur event or incompetence, the reaction across the media is in lockstep. The message is the same, "you are helpless and pathetic, must be dependent on government, must give up your rights and taxes". He compares the megalomaniacal black-ops view of the American public to the kind of ant-farm you used to get as a kid. They watch what happens and create messages to encourage busy dependency and fear.

From that POV, the actions by gov't are right on track: big arguments between dem/repub, while rates go up, central control of power goes up, and individual independence goes down.

It would sure be great to have a president who advocated independent self-reliance. You'll never hear this Big-Gov't patsy say, "rugged individualism" like old TR. Its all about manipulating those trillions of dollars, bottom line. If the public were self-reliant the parasite elite wouldn't be able to pull the wool over everyone's eyes so easily.
