But relying on past causes ONLY to predict future vulnerabilities is no longer adequate. After all, before 9/11 it could have been argued "has a single sky-scraper ever been collapsed by a colliding aircraft?" Let's not dismiss the possibility so lightly -- after all, we in the US now know that there are malevolent people out to exploit ANY vulnerability they find that will harm our society. Sure, the capacity issues must be addressed as well -- but computer security of the control systems should be a concern.
