Title: Back, damn Blackout >.<

Im back, couldnt get on after 4:15 thursday, untill today. As ya probably know the Northeastern US and Ontario in Canada had a massive power failure.

Even now only 2/3rd of my hometown (Ottawa) have electricity. n What power there is right now isnt guaranteed to be perfectly stable.

Dang power companies n their out of date systems  -_-

I can't remember the last time I had a powercut. I don't like them much, because I like listening to my CD player pretty much all the time.

Isn't it funny how powercuts nearly always start at night?

They said on the news that they wanted to replace the outdated equipment, but they were afraid that new equipment might cause this very same thing to happen. Well, that was the investors' excuse at least.
