PA counties of ERIE, CRAWFORD, VENANGO and CLARION have experienced outages. That's within 55 miles of the big Petronski. I feel like the BLOB is creeping up on me.

I agree, but what I don't like is the quick tendency on the part of officials to say that it is not terrorist related.

It seems they are very anxious (too anxious) to say that an event is not terrorist related, though it is hard for me to belive they could come to any meaningful conclusion so quickly (in this case they were saying 'nothing to see here' within an hour of the event, or so.

It appears to me that the party line is to deny that something eventful is suspicious almost immediately. Since I don't have faith that they could come to a meaningful conclusion one way or the other within 30, 45, 60 minutes, or so.

It appears that the official party line is to deny something eventful is terrorist related, even before all the facts are in. That isn't a good thing.

Yup.

The power grid is failing all across the Eastern U.S. - wait until about two hours from now...

The paperback is available on Amazon. We're on our second copy we've reread it so many times.

Sean quickly put him on hold.

Most likely she will be held at the hospital...protocol for a crisis such as this.

I don't think so. She's a psychologist, not a nurse. But you never know . . .

While I understand why the Powers That Be have to say, "It's not terrorism", I don't believe that for a minute

So it was terrorism in 1965 and 1977 as well?

RUN! EVERYTHING IS CONSPIRACY!

Would the government ever admit it was a terrorist attack unless there was incontrovertible proof

Would YOU ever admit it wasn't unless there was incontrovertible proof? Here's why I believe them: It's happened before. Before Al Qaeda, before 9/11. It's summer, it's hot, and there is a huge demand for power. The system is designed to do just what it did. Relax!
