for maintenance.

However that was to be in a few days, not at the time of the accident.

I don't believe in coincidence. Either someone screwed up at the gas company... or they had a software / hardware bug, or a cyber attack that took advantage of the announcement in order to hide the attack in the confusion.

I wonder if someone shorted the gas company stock last week?
