So. maybe we should restore the steam engines at the Colonel Ward Pumping Station, with a BIG pile of coal (or tanks of oil) to fuel them. (Not kidding - it makes sense) . Huntley is also powered with coal, in Tonawanda. A few pulses aren't going to knock out big coils of copper in such big generators, same as in Lewiston. We'll be okay.
Let's not try to stir up panic when it's not warranted, k? K.
