Reporting in from Lycoming County. Everything is normal here. We must be on a different grid.

I'm in Montgomery County PA. Obviously, everything is fine. Soccer practice is still on. :)

Stay calm, stay indoors, drink lots of water, avoid alcohol!

And don't forget to brush your teeth, and whatever you do -- DON'T SMOKE!!!!! Unless you're a man, then pole smoking is A-OK, of course.

Bloomberg on CNN live now.

He says popwer is starting to come back on.

It will take hours, though.

No evidence of terrorism.

Bloomberg: hours, not minutes, before power is back; no reason to think it's terrorism.

A caller to Hannity just mentioned a "small plane crash". Hannity cut him off or put him on hold or something. Anybody know about a plane crash?

Absolute BS. Just some jerk trying to stir up fear.

absolutely!


Mayor Bloomberg (pictured here) states there's no reason to panic.

So what caused the overload? Explosion? Sabotage? Plane crash into power station?

That's what I'm talking about. I know the grid is supposed to go down, but what caused it to go down?
