Paul, We are going by my aging memory. I can't remember the exact lineup -but lets say the SRV is open, with steam going into the torus. Generally HPCI and...
Lenny, I see you would like to engineer this into the lowest probability event as you can think -as a station blackout it is clearly not. You got a group I...
