Clive, You Okay In Toronto?

[David Meek]

Clive, I'm watching CNN right now, and they of course are focused on the huge power outage. They said it stretched up to Toronto! Are you okay? :?

Guess Clive can't reply. The power's probably still out there. I heard warnings on the radio news this morning asking motorists to stay off the streets due to the lack of traffic lights.

Currently electricity is sparse in the city of T.O, but should be up and running by tonight from what all reports are saying. Though they may have to run rolling blackouts to share the power. Shits going to hit the fan when they finally find out who caused the problem.

Reports we're hearing are a lightning strike was the initial point of interruption. . . .

HEY!! Why buy movie tickets when you can own a Theater?

Latest news from CNN is that it all started in Ohio. Something about 3 lines failing.

One scenario they were saying happened was that 300 megawatts were travelling east to NY then it suddenly did an about-face and 500 megawatts was ricocheted which cause an overload.

Hi Rand, glad you are doing okay, too. I'd forgotten you are in Toronto also. . .

Hey David,

Thanks!! It's been real interesting. You should have seen the line up for gas. Some people even lined up at gas stations that didn't yet have power just waiting and hoping they would get it soon. Even now most people are making sure their tanks are topped up just in case we get more power outages.

I just saw on the news today that they got the numbers in for today since most people went back to work. They say that the city is still consuming too much energy and not conserving enough. I'm shocked at how many people are just plain stubborn. They refuse to help conserve power while they work at getting things up to speed. I just hope we don't get any further complications.
