Somehow I don't think Osama's attack is going to be a power outage in Chicago.

"IPN reporting major power outage in downtown Chicago."

That was my dispatch at IPN last night. I asked the IPN Mod if I should send that type of incident out. Since the cause of the outage was undetermined and the area affected is part of the "nightlife" area of the north "Loop", I was advised to send it. I never did pick up on the cause. Usually the fire department just lets ComEd handle it, but the battalion chief requested that 2 fire companies remain on the street and he personally went to 2 separate locations to meet with these companies.
