How Will the Next Power Failure Affect Your Life? Hackers, or Nature. Both Will Result in Death.

<p><strong>[As heard on WGAN 2021-06-30]</strong></p> <p>From man-caused like hackers through the environmental causes, like the sun, we could lose power. We've got a heat waves. We've got cold weather. We've got everything in between. What happens if we lose power, what do we need to do? That's what I discussed this morning with Mr. Matt Gagnon</p> <p>[00:00:24] <strong>Matt Gagnon:</strong> [00:00:24] Craig Peterson joins us every Wednesday at this time to go over what's happening in the world of technology.</p> <p>[00:00:29] He also joins this very station on Saturday. And talks about many of these very same issues in more depth of detail. Craig, welcome back to the program. Nice to have you as always, sir.</p> <p>[00:00:39]<strong>Craig Peterson:</strong> [00:00:39] Hey, thanks. Glad to be here in such a nice or arm day, you said this tongue in his cheek.</p> <p>[00:00:45] <strong>Matt Gagnon:</strong> [00:00:45] I believe oppressive heat is the word you press.</p> <p>[00:00:47]<strong>Craig Peterson:</strong> [00:00:47] I grew up in in Canada and part of it was Northern Canada and the 70 degree day was like summertime. So my blood, I don't know my hips historically. I did the whole thing with the, the DNA in tracing ancestry. It's all from Northern. But you've Norwegian, et cetera. I think I am one of those minorities that is really heavily oppressed and should probably be getting free air conditioning.</p> <p>[00:01:17] Cause my blood is just too, I don't know, sick, I guess for this.</p> <p>[00:01:20] <strong>Matt Gagnon:</strong> [00:01:20] Yeah. I'm very sympathetic to you, Greg. And I think it does. I would say dovetail nicely into the question I was planning to ask you about. During heat waves here, that we've had so many different infrastructure attacks, hackers are getting into our energy.</p> <p>[00:01:33] Great. And whatnot. That could be a bit of a deadly combination in the middle of a heat wave. Could it not? I would be concerned. I learned about that if I had your stick blood. So what should we
