Was an attack last April on an electric power station near San Jose, Calif., the work of vandals or something far more dangerous — domestic terrorism or a trial run by an individual or organization bent on damaging the nation's electric grid?
An FBI spokesman, without going into details, states that the agency does not believe a terrorist organization was responsible.  A former PG&E vice president for transmission operations said at a conference last November that "these were not amateurs taking potshots." "My personal view is that this was a dress rehearsal" for future attacks, added Mark Johnson, the former PG&E executive, Jon Wellinghoff — chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission at the time of the attack — as saying it was "the most significant incident of domestic terrorism involving the grid that has ever occurred" in the U.S.
