Shows what Americans can do when motivated! In another life when I used to work for wages, we all in the engineering department said that plant operators never wanted to take downtime or spend the money to do proper preventive maintenance, yet invariably spent more money and lost more time when the equipment cratered.
They never learn. Ever.

I've seen it a lot in the power industry over the years. And with Obama's war on coal, even more so as utilities forego maintenance to keep units on line while decommissioning functionally sound plants. For no good reason, I'll add.
