Fried Squirrel

Several years ago I came home in the summer to no electricity. I could see that neighbors had their lights on and since I knew the bills had been paid I couldn’t figure out why we didn’t have power. I called the power company and they dispatched some guys—several hours later. They walked back through the woods with their flashlights and a long pole. The lights came back on and they told me a squirrel had fried itself at our pole and flipped the switch. What if the East Coast/Ohio/Michigan blackout was caused by an errant squirrel?
