Outage
No, it's not a new album from the Descendents.
Apparently the Niagra-Mohawk power grid, which serves a huge eastern portion of the U.S. and Canada, has fucked up real bad.
NYC's in the middle of a blackout, as are Cleveland, Detroit, Toronto, and Ottawa. I'm assuming those last two are boroughs of NYC.* People are trapped in subways and on elevators, and uh, stuff's not looking too good.
I'm in the middle of New Jersey and everything's peachy here, though maybe I shouldn't say anything just yet.
"Niagra-Mohawk" sure is a punk-rock name for a power grid, though.
