There are multiple explanations surfacing now, which is no surprise. Everyone will try to blame everyone else until the proof can be found to nail down the cause.

Narrew:

You're pretty funny too, thinking that any of the news channels are any more or less unreliable than any of the others. But to trademark the phrase 'Fair & Balanced' is a whole new level of sleaziness.

They were already there, you smell them buggers? They're hiding, but they're in there.

Hurray!

Back up and running! Fortunately live across the street from an ambulance station, so my power grid should be on despite rolling blackouts!

I can see it now. The DSL techs and the Phone techs get together and find out why Geo doesn't have DSL. "If we just flip this switch, PBW will be back!"... FLIP... POW!!! It is now a choice between lighting the NorthEast or having PBW? I know what I would pick! Ohio IS where it started. (P.S. PBW is down, sorry to get your hopes up)

Only part of Ohio hit was Cleveland and that's very far from where I live. Only problem we've had with the blackout is watching the ad nauseum reports on the news. Has anyone at the networks conidered that those not affected by the blackout aren't all that interested, and those affected can't watch it on tv anyway?
