Kevin,

I used to look at SER's or "significant event reports" for nukes and I
recall one in particular that caught my eye maybe 15 or 20 years ago. The
plant at LaCrosse, Wisconsin, reported an unscheduled shutdown due to an
electrical short in a transformer. The cause was identified as a large
number of mayflies landing on or being driven onto it during a rainstorm.
It must have been one hell of a hatch to do that. I don't know if they were
Hexagenia, the report did not identify the species g. Note: I am not a
cheesehead and have no reason to boast about their mayfly hatches.

I caught a 20 inch chromer on the feather (hundreds and hundreds of
miles from the ocean) in january and someone suctioned his stomach, and
he had a TON of mayflies in him, like 20.


Damn -- let's hear those cheeseheads blather on about the size of
their Hexagenia after they see a hundred pound mayfly.
