While I appreciate the potential dangers of IW, the vulnerability of our existing physical infrastructure has been and should be equally worry some. Drive down 101 south of San Jose and look at the power interconnect within a few feet of the freeway and think what a good pitching arm could do. Look at the LA Aqueduct or the TWO water feeders that supply Manhattan. What me worry. Dave SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Utility officials increased security at power stations around San Francisco on Friday after FBI investigators said someone intentionally cut power to the city's downtown. "It was a deliberate act," said FBI spokesman George Grotz. "It was not an accident, and it was not a computer intrusion." | ************************************************** "Photons have neither morals nor visas" -- Dave Farber 1994 **************************************************
