Default Re: Massive Power Outage

Same down here in Babylon-on-the-Potomac, Narrew. The local news radio station was broadcasting the national news' every-10-minute update on the power outage (yep, it's still out...) and every half hour it was "how the outage is affecting DC" (unless you wanted to travel to the blacked-out areas by plane or train, not at all).

Makes you wonder, though, at the fragility of this technological support net we've built for ourselves...
