Reality check on that movie pitch Staying in the Dark. We ignored the warnings about the possibility of an enormous blackout. Now we're left wondering what might happen if terrorists link their madness to our power vulnerabilities. By Bob Herbert. [New York Times: Opinion] More like 'Reality? Check please!' [Because a feature length motion picture of based on two plus decades of government with its bipartisan ostrich head in the sand just makes for boring movie-going!] 5:11:02 PM    comment []  trackback []

High Hollywood concept? Manuscript for sale: Terrorists Take Down the National Power Grid. I have a completed novel for sale. A terrorist cell takes down the U.S. power grid in a cross-country campaign. The author has intelligence agency, DoD, and law enforcement experience. Anyone know a publisher or a movie producer looking for a property? [a klog apart] FYI. Dunno if Mr Apart can write fiction well, but then again, maybe [shudder] this isn't fiction....
