Last month's emergency occurred about three hours into controller Harten's eight-hour shift, but only 15 minutes after he was assigned to handle departures from New York's LaGuardia Airport.
Areas that are predominantly coal or nuclear will be insulated from this to some extent because the grid can onlyhandle so much demand with certain facilities shut down or retired.
Let me conclude by saying that removing soldiers who can not handle combat experiences from the Army is not only in the Army's best interests, but those soldiers and the country's best interest too.
