A friend of mine is head admin at Russian power grid (FSK, "Federal Grid Company"). He ensures me the SCADA
really *is* not connected to anything ;-)

Surely, you mean:

It's not as simple as saying "they shouldn't be connected to anything".  Beyond nuke generation (which is very much

completely isolated will always be a minority, the rest we will need to do better with.
