Quote HistoryQuoted:
... was working in Manhattan during the big Northeast blackout of 2003. Luckily, it was a Friday and we got off work "on time" for once. Made it all the way up (26 floors) to my room just as it blacked out. My rudimentary survivalist skills saved the day for a young woman and her two small kids. She was near panic with no food whatsoever - so I robbed the maids goody stash for stocking rooms with that option. She would have kissed me. Many of the folks that hosted me had to walk miles home that night, many camped out in the office https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Map_of_North_America%2C_blackout_2003.svg/800px-Map_of_North_America%2C_blackout_2003.svg.png I'm sure when GM finally sells off the Lordstown plant there will be very small print in the contract that will absolve them of any responsibility and liabilities due to past power outages covering the entire northeast US resulting from the co-gen plant at Lordstown being operated in an under-voltage condition for one or more shifts leading up to said blackout. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Maybe it will last long enough for canabalization of as many progressives as possible. We are having monsoon storms here in AZ. We have no problem when the power goes out, usually walk out and say high to the neighbors, see if anyone needs anything. Then grilling for dinner or back inside for some fun card games with a our emergency/camping lanterns and candles. |

Worst part is NERC put out a detailed report, which was basically an instruction manual on how to take down the grid. Should never have come near public domain. |

Here's an odd coincidence, there was another manhole fire at 4th and Market in Philadelphia earlier today that killed the power in the Old City area for several hours:
Fox 29 Inquirer Obviously a lot smaller impact than all of Manhattan going dark, but it seems weird that one of the big tourist areas in Philly lost power on the same day and for the same reason. |
