Roll the NBC Dateline footage of the exploding pickup truck again... There's a world of difference between a "see, it could happen" video and something we actually need to worry about. (Personally, I'm about 350 times more worried about utility failures caused by worms accidentally propagating onto a SCADA net than I am about intentional attacks, if for no other reason than there's a lot more probing bots out there than there are actual cyberterrorists. But that's just me.)
