Passing a power line in Chile
I had no idea how vulnerable the power lines are in the nation of Chile.  On this date in2010, a massive power outage affected 90 percent of the South American nation of Chili.  This was two weeks following a severe earthquake.  The power outage continued into the next day, and eventually an investigation was done into the power companies, and charges were  filed.
