Critical Infrastructure at risk, so no water?

I had often thought that these vulnerabilities could be bad. I was concerned that there could be mixed chemicals at the wrong ratios or even ground water contamination, but I never considered that the water just simply would not be there. I also found out that many small municipalities are at risk. There isn’t much that you personally can do, except maybe store a little water at the house.

It does seem like the EPA realizes that this is an issue and have started to fund grants to improve these security systems. I’ll keep you posted.

This will either excite or terrify you…

Meet Atlas, the new robot from Boston Dynamics. As you can see from the video this is a huge leap in the technology.

We are already at war in many ways…

It may be fortunate from the perspective of loss of life in a gun fight, but it’s not for the citizens of a county. In many way the wars of stated are fought on the internet, not in a “Command and Conquer” type of way, but in the fact that we are all trying to hack and disrupt each other.

Be careful where you get your news, and check the facts for yourself.
