Company not affiliated with the utility. We will bring in tom baker to get us up to speed. Reporter it was not pg es fault. It was an independent Third Party Contractor working on a construction project. I want to go right to the video tape so you can see the pictures. The company is called anvil builders and they dug into three lines that constitute a 12,000volt line and took out all three of those cables to connect two substations together causing this big outage. This is fairly rare. Unlike gas lines that are always buried into the ground, these are underground. At the peak, there were 22,000 people out.

Good morning class and welcome back to history 3290, modern American Military history. Today, we are going to continue our conversation about the second world war. And, specifically we will look at an aspect of the war through what we call the lens of industrial mobilization. And, industrial mobilization is often understood as the key to allied victories in this ward. It is often said that the allies win because they out produce the axis powers. Im sure many of us have heard this before and perhaps encountered it or read it. But, one of the problems with that line of reasoning is that if it is simply an amount of stuff that produces victory. But at the beginning of this war the axis powers possessed more. So that cannot absolutely establish ultimately the trajectory of allied victory. Because, the allies for a long time are deficient in that quantity of stuff. The other aspect of the material argument, if you will that the allies out reduced and overstated and under simplified.
