Missed this back in 2009, remember something about a power outage affecting aluminum production in Siberia, but not the destruction of one of the worlds largest hydro power stations thru management incompetence. Just put totally back on line after a total rebuild lasting 5 years. Only person punished so far is a journalist investigating it, typical Putin. Statute of limitations will run out before those responsible will be prosecuted, probably Kremlin cronies.
But, hey, Crimea is back in the fold, and how about those winter Olympics!
Party time! Vodka for everyone!

There is a short real-time cellphone vid of the event immediately after the turbine failed, with the electrical explosions. Someone link it please.
