After having spent yesterday watching television coverage of Ida's arrival at 
New
Orleans and coverage of their preparations, provided by Station WWL in New 
Orleans,
I awoke today to find the cloud cover has reached Tennessee and the path is 
expected
to pass over us tomorrow.  I understand that power could be out for some time 
in NOLA
because of major damage to their power system. This was on my mind as I looked 
up
at the pole that sits in my side yard, as a part of the main distribution of 
power and
communications to  the west side of Tullahoma.  The poles in NOLA seemed to be 
of a
similar configuration, and suffered damage, but their biggest problem was the 
loss of
eight major transmission lines.
