“@austinenergy Squirrels cause 300+ power outages each year http://bit.ly/11apOLx " < @attritionorg CYBER SQUIRREL WAR!
@jameslyne @austinenergy 300 seems very low, but may speak to squirrel density that @chrissistrunk and I were discussing

@attritionorg@austinenergy@chrissistrunk squirrel APT density comparison graph?! ;-) -
@jameslyne@austinenergy you laugh, but that is exactly what@chrissistrunk and I discussed -
@attritionorg@austinenergy@chrissistrunk haha. The level of awesome in the world just went up. I need to make more graphs like that -
@jameslyne@austinenergy@chrissistrunk consider one power company reported hundreds of squirrel-based outages in a single *month* -
@attritionorg@austinenergy@chrissistrunk extrapolate... can we start to say squirrel damage is bigger than the drug trade? (old myth) -
@jameslyne@austinenergy@chrissistrunk if every power company could release full stats, that would be an interesting answer -
@attritionorg@austinenergy@chrissistrunk that would be fascinating. I wonder how one would kick start such an initiative... -
@jameslyne@austinenergy@chrissistrunk can't. power companies do not consider that info public (i've asked) - 3 more replies
