Lights out...

What can I say, pretty amazing events yesterday with the power blackout. Almost as many people without power in North America as the entire population of the UK. Fortunately here in Boston we weren't affected. I spoke to a few friends in New York City today and they said it's pretty weird.
One of them did make an interesting comment, "We've been without power for less than 24 hours now, imagine how it is in most of Iraq where they have been without power since the war started", it kind of put things in perspective. I'm not sure how I could cope 24 hours without checking my e-mail...I get twitchy just at the thought of it.
