[quote:Anonymous Coward 45845934:MV8yMzM0MDE0XzM5ODMzODgxXzRCQTRCRDM0] when you combine "cyber-attack" and "natural disaster" in the same sentience it can mean a few things. 1. Some hacker will cause a dam to burst. 2. some hacker will infiltrate a nuclear power plants controls and have it melt down 3. the cyber attack can be used as an excuse for a "natural disaster" even if the disaster was caused by man. people would be dumb enough to believe it.

Original Message

“Many things still need tending, and my successor will most certainly have a full plate on his or her hands,” said Napolitano, who leaves her post next week after more than four years at the helm of the Department of Homeland Security.
