I'm setting up a new page ... not sure if it's going to remain named "the real world", but you can read all about it, and why the subject of this post is called blackout day.

I've GOT the power!! :))) Back to normal life.

Didnt sleep for two nights in a row because of the heat, super tired of walking to 19th floor about 20 times with 10kgs of products, didnt have any water for anything and was bored to hell...

grr.. totally dependant on electricity

P.S. more than 24 hours without it in the downtown Toronto

I hope the west coast sees this and WAKES UP now and fixes issues that could cause this before it happens over here.

As it is we get brownouts every once in a while already.

The only thing that would scare me about that is.......

Its run by Texans.

Sorry, but it was an easy rimshot......

Worst case if the power goes out in California you'll see a savings on your next electric bill, no wait, they will probably just add a 'power outage' surcharge to it.
