LETTER FROM WASHINGTON: APRIL 2015

摘要

For US politicians, power outages are like stock market crashes or road disrepair. They are vote stealers. It’srnespecially bad if the outage occurs in a high visibility place, like say Washington, DC; even more egregious if thernDepartment of Energy loses its lights.rnAnd that’s exactly what happened April 7. In fact, not only did the grid fail at the DOE, but also the White House,rnthe Capitol Building, the State Department, national museums and other key locations.
