French media reports citing an interview with the former French Inspector-General for Historic Monuments Benjamin Mouton, who oversaw the installation of state-of-the-art fire prevention systems in the Notre Dame Cathedral in 2010, and who was responsible for the building from 2000 to 2013, cast doubt on today's leak to the Associated Press that the fire was likely caused by an electrical short-circuit.

Most likely caused by a short-tempered jihadi. Any of them taken credit for it yet?

C'mon Dawg, you're a much smarter man than that.

Copycats, retaliation?

You betcha, fella.

I still think that it was most likely a reconstruction misadventure. Been there, done that. (FWIW, the limits of my liability ins. was $250,000, went all the way, but I wasn't solely responsible, went much further, other entities were liable.)

Edit: Deleted stuff, too real.
