    Just flipped on CNN, watching the masses snake through the streets of
    Manhattan as correspondents state that this could be an affect of the
    blaster worm.

    Interesting but I don't see how an worm of this magnitude (smaller than that
    of Slammer/Sapphire and others) could influence DCS and SCADA systems around
    the US, particularly just in the North East.

    Thoughts?
