Our nation runs on electricity. The bulk of that power is transmitted from various kinds of generating facilities by a complex interconnected highway of power lines known collectively as the “grid.” That grid — valuable, venerable and vulnerable — faces challenges daily from Mother Nature and man’s demand for more power. Here’s a look at the challenges of moving electrons from here to there, and some of the changes we’ll see as the grid gets “smarter.”

Also in this issue: reader-submitted recipes that will draw raves from your biggest food critics — the kids; a commentary encouraging high school juniors to sign up for this coming June's Youth Tour by a participant from last year; coverage of the Indiana electric co-op association's 75th annual meeting which featured Gov. Mitch Daniels and Miss America 2009 Katie Stam; and more!
