Exactly. I spent about 3 more hours there today. It was very clear to

A modern spare main electrical room is always nice (costly, of course), but live service never has to be interrupted - or the interruption takes considerably shorter time, if any - while you work on the first room.

There are lots of places in many industrial facilities that meet that

description; this looks like a fairly benign one to me compared to some

of the places I've seen/been...

why would you spend 3 hours in an electrical vault? It's not a break room.


Indeed, it would, one would think, be off limits and only entered when

absolutely necessary. What surprises me more than the facility itself

is the being there ... but, we've been given no klew of what iggy was up


to so hard to judge.


I'm just so, so sure. I don't know who is better known in here for gimp and recycling issues than ig. Do you?

I wonder. How did he feel with all those big bulky heavy solid copper bus and breakers just staring at him? How'd he feel being around all that 500 wire?

(I'd love for him to say)
