Sad news.

Tesla Motors lost three of its employees

I really like the company too and if I could afford it, I would be lining up to get myself one of the roadsters.

However one piece of the above article really got me thinking. Why is it that this accident could cause power outage to a whole city, including hospitals and all. I just cannot understand why there is virtually no redundancy to the power grid.

Is this the best there is ? Palo Alto, the High Tech center of the known universe. Unbelievable !
