Electric Utility Pioneer Lionel Barthold talks about working in the power utilities business in the 50s and 60s, grid expansion, using a Transient Network Analyzer. It was a room filled with small scale components to mimic a continental or regional power grid. Problems were analyzed using complicated math instead of computers. They used a weather baloon to attract lighting to test systems... excerpt from the GE Family Album Series by the Edison Tech Center.

Let's all just agree that we live in an Idiocracy, and it's only in the best interest of private and political powers to improve the grid if there's money in it for them. There isn't.
