One Tree in Ohio Gets Blamed for America's Worst Blackout
The biggest power failure in North America's history was likely caused by a tree in Walton Hills, Ohio, the Wall Street Journal reported today.
After sagging into the tree Aug. 14, a FirstEnergy Corp. power line closed down and set off a series of alarms that alerted company officials and the regional power system operator to the fact something was wrong. But they weren't sure what.

A single tree caused all that chaos. It definitely sounds like a cover up. Very improbable that this could happen in this manner. reply posted on 16-9-2003 @ 12:04 AM by ktprktpr
A single tree. 1 tree?
That's a clever statement...
It's so stupid it has to be false ... but then why would they release an obviously false statement, unless it were some how true. You can't have a conspiracy about a Tree.
I can't remember if someone posted this, but this scientist things that HAARP did it: globalresearch.ca...

From a Frontline interivew with the new head of CyberSecutiry at the Homeland Security dep't:
March 19, 2003
"Everybody talks about the sophisticated attacks that are taking place, the sophisticated attacks that seem to focus on electrical power companies, water utilities. What's going on?
Certainly those are the attacks that people are focused on, because they're the ones that concern all of us. The defense of those critical infrastructures needs to be prioritized. Their electronic defense is one component of their defense. We actually see that certain infrastructures, like the utilities, like the financial services sector, do receive more attacks than, say, the healthcare industry, or the non-profits of the world. I don't know if it's a statistical anomaly, or if it's one where there are actually more attacks targeting those organizations."
edit-
"People out there are saying, "These systems are so vulnerable that they could be taken down. I think someone could take down a grid in America." From your point of view here, does something like that seem in the realm of belief?
I don't know that a catastrophic system-wide type of event can occur. Certainly, there are areas of vulnerability in the infrastructure. So can the entire system be brought down or destroyed? I wouldn't have insight into that. But I believe there are key vulnerability points, but it may be more limited than some people would imply."
