Securing America's Power Grid

I thought about this years ago... And never wanted to bring it up...

Well someone has...

I remember a few cascading failures and how much it can cost the economy...

How the electrical grid is basically the arteries of the american economy...

Has anyone else thought about this and how connected it is...

I think a attack like this is more dangerous than any airborne attack...

A sustained multi-network attack for a week or so would cripple the economy... much more than september 11th ever did...

But the grid must be this exposed... there are technical reasons...

I was just hoping that no one else would notice...

Well you know the news organizations tend to advertise our weakness's

any thoughts?
