Terrible metaphor!
Joy_in_Pgh 13th Dec 2008
Distributed power generation is both efficient and robust
(in the true scientific sense of "stands up to perturbations
and disruptive influences"). If we lose long-distance power
lines in an ice storm, it'll be sweet to have at least a trickle
of power and a plug to stick a space heater into--too bad
we don't have a few thousand panels in the neighborhood.
I don't know if this means every company should have at
least one or two IT guys, however--metaphors are not a
form of logic, they are a form of rhetoric. They are all, by
definition, imperfect parallels to some degree.
