Buck-passing

The first lesson we can learn from the Heathrow shutdown is that the buck will be in constant motion. The head of the National Grid reckons that any of the three substations which are connected to the airport can keep the place running.
    The boss of the airport reckons that all the computers had to be safely shut down and safely rebooted, and that’s why the place went dark.
    It was a totally unexpected emergency and there was no plan for dealing with it. And, as with the Chinese plague, all the experts are claiming that they are right.
