We haven't had a terrorist take a shot at our grid yet. Just wait.
It's not going to be simple, and it will surely be a helluva lot worse

We can't install new overhead transmission lines because they are
unsightly and decrease property values, or bury electric or gas lines
because blasting will harm wells.

They have a pipeline planned here in Oregon, too.
