That report however pointed out the general serious vulnerability of our electrical grid infrastructure and painted a fairly bleak picture of the potential effect of such an attack. Forstchen, may have taken some literary license but in scanning the report (its online) perhaps not. Anyway, he tells a story well. George: there is extensive literature our there on the net regarding the frailty of our grid. It is extremely vulnerable to many other ways to sabotage it and nothing as drastic as a nuclear initiated EMP. Basically, hit a few electrical hubs/grids around the country that are very unprotected and the cascading effect will ensure complete shutdown. Jorge, I have thought of our national electronic infrastructure to be symbolized by that in the movie National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation if you know what I mean.
