Note to Readers from Editor: We can’t make this stuff up!

Late Tuesday night (2-26-2008) as we were rushing to publish our latest edition of the newsjournal, the lights were going out in Miami. Like some bad B movie from the 1950’s
the local nuclear power plant in south Florida had turned itself off because a switch had over heated and a fire had started in one of the energy network’s sub-power stations.

Over 2 million people were pushed into the dark. Nuclear and large scale power plants are all just a collection of low bid sub contractors work at building thousands of sub systems and parts that hopefully will work together with out a disaster.

However, we wonder, under the constant peak loads that most power plants are operating under in these days of a resource starved 21st century, what are the fail safe protocols for 100% maximum power generation?

We think South Florida and Miami found out this week!
