This story is reliable, dust on power poles can cause fire and shorting,
particularly in wet conditions. I know, I am a lineman for the county.

Sometimes a squirrel can black out a city.

That's one of the oldest lies in the books. Union electricians blame animals for their shoddy work but a power outage NEVER occurs because of animals.

Looks like you bought into that bullshit excuse long ago.

Here's an example. Military bases NEVER have power outages but they have squirrels, hawks, rabbits, etc..just like every other place on the planet. The one thing military bases don't have is union electricians.

I worked in the power industry you fucking tard.

It happens. The private sector cheaps out on maintenance as much as possible. The military does maintenance like religion. Eventually, the military spends far more on maintenance than it needs to, and the private sector eventually gets bitten in the ass by do just a weeee little bit too little maintenance.
