Frankly, I understand the urgency but is it so bad that Fox News treats it like it is the end of the world in NYC? I am watching this on TV and they are acting like this is a major world event that people are dying. Personally, I for one don’t think anyone is dying there now.

Look at the time first topic was posted. Generally one reads a bit to check for duplications.

Well, I agree that they do over-dramatize, but for some trapped in elevators, it may not be.

I hope people in NYC and in LA and MS are safe tonight.

42,000 is a drop in the bucket in NYC. Really. What a bunch of drama queens.

You wouldn’t believe it now - nationwide hotels and businesses, major oil companies and oil field service companies, daily air service to Houston with likely service to Denver this fall.

Fox called it a "massive blackout". Never mind that it covers maybe 5% of Manhattan and it lasted for about 4 hours.

They are hyping this relatively smallish blackout, horribly.

One must consider the elderly who depend on electrical equipment or AC.

No new nuke plants since Three Mile Island...and that was 40 years ago.

In the Tiny Minds of The Left, ALL nuclear power plants are Generation I - Chernobyl, Fukushima and the plant in The China Syndrome.

There are no Generation III or Generation IV plants. Nuclear plant development has been frozen in time, like a dragonfly in amber.

Notice that some of the trains were bound for Queens. Why do you suppose that is?

In all the years I’ve been here, I’ve never seen much evidence that anyone knows about the search function.
