Hannity station went dead for about 20 seconds. Said he had never seen anything like it.

Or how about a cheesy movie plot where a group of criminals engineer a major power outage to cover their big heist.

Yes, I have no idea why. Here is the link to the article, I thought it was a good one. Article

Well you and I know that we have and routinely test this technology. HAARP!

Just something to think about.

Not sure if I buy the lightning in Niagra story.

It may have been like having too many appliances turned on at your house at the same time causing the breaker to overload..Who knows?

I find many things odd and things I don't like, too many contradictions but NINE nuclear reactors down?!

Thank you for taking the time to report. I'm so sorry you are going through this. What on earth are people going to do when they have to relieve themselves? Just go on the streets. I hate to say it, but this catastrophe is beyond 9-11. I have never heard of anything like it, ever. Having lived in Manhattan, I remember the aged equipment and stale mentality of the utility companies. Hope you get some sleep. Good luck in the morning.

Fair did you notice all the marks on our President's face at his speech, besides his sunburn. Did he look worried or griefstricken to you?

Just hearing Mrs. Grifter blaming ENRON enraged me no end. THERE IS NOTHING THIS WITCH WON'T EXPLOIT........

Perhaps Chelsea has an editorial all ready for the NYSlimes.

Thanx ;)

The Sierra Club and friends

Any connection with PETA?

Keep in mind that most hotels use the key cards to enter the rooms. There is no way to open the doors without power. There will be no airconditioning and no water in any of the rooms.

Being in a dark hotel room, no fresh air, no water is not manageable.

I heard the rumor two plants were on fire, one in Pennsylvania and one somewhere else...did you hear this one? I was terrified with all the people stuck in Manhattan etc. that God what if they released a chem agent, a car bomb, a SAM that wasn't in a sting?!

[OldFriend]

Nuclear plants shut down as part of the process when the power fails.

During his recent physical the President had some thingees removed from his face due to sun damage.

Thanks I will pass it along. a lot of FR's have been sending prayer for him which I am printing out to send to him

FNC is reporting that the Red Cross is in NY and they are passing out water bottles and or things to the people.

At $4.95 per bottle, no doubt.

The RC must be short on cash...not
