Default SPECIAL: Trim the trees, keep your lights on

You're one of those folks that think they have the answer to
everything, aren't you?

The 70 mph winds that blew through Louisville last Wednesday night did
their most damage in the downtown and Old Louisville areas where there
are hardly any trees at all. The winds knocked down lines and poles,
knocking out electricity to nearly 30,000 people. Trimming trees that
were not even present in that area would have done absolutely nothing
to keep the lights on.

Your URL says absolutely nothing about trimming trees. Do you work for
Matt Drudge?

from Steve Lare, aka dxAce. I'll put money on it.
