That's a literal example of what happens when faith and science collide.

More broadly, quote of note from Royal Marine officer after recent floods in
the UK - they were shoring up the walls of a major power-grid switching
station, with water inside the facility and much more outside. "I remembered
electricity and water don't mix, but it wasn't a good moment to think
that.." With 600,000 customers hanging off it, needs must when the devil
drives.
