Not really. The article just missed the real reason. Lightning strikes. Florida power reliability is horrible because of the huge number of electrical storms and lightning strikes to the system. This will facilitate "routing around" strikes and bringing up portions of the grid faster. Of course, blaming mother nature isn't as politically popular as blaming piggish customers.

Interesting considering all (or most) of us had our taxes go up 3-6%. However, I find no other confirmation of this story, which, at the moment, I believe to be true. Anyone able to confirm or repudiate said story?"

Interesting that the OP got instantly modded down. Suppose the article was about a new computer language and the article described it as a compiler when it really was an interpreter. Bullshit would be called immediately. Same level of error, different tech.

Let's all show human CONCERN for REVERAND MOON's legal difficulties!!
