<p>Numerous people in our service area knew more about running an electric utility than we did. All you had to do was ask them. Unfortunately, when we did so, it was clear that they did not have a clue about the electric utility business or much else for that matter.</p> <p>Many of the people in our company knew more about accounting and finance than the accountants. All you had to do was ask them. Get the picture. Most of them did not have a clue.</p> <p>Many of the people who post to these forums know more about security than the TSA, transit police, etc. Just ask them. Fortunately, most of them don't know what they are talking about. Even more fortunate is the fact that the task of securing our airports, railroads, utilities, etc. has been placed in the hands of security professionals. That is not to say that they don't make mistakes or that their policies and procedures cannot be improved. But it is to say that armchair security experts should recognize the limits of their capabilities. </p> <p>This thread, by the way, started out with a reference to an article in the Dallas Morning News about crime on the Dallas Area Rapid Transit system. That was the intended scope for the discussion. </p>
