I don't know about you guys, but I sure am glad that I don't live up there around New York and where ever else it is that has a blackout....We don't have to worry about that here in Burnet...I don't think. Lol

I know at least 2 football boards that are down because their server is linked to a server in New York!

New Yorks problem is the same they have in Califonia with the rolling blackouts. They refuse to spend the money to build extra power plants and are forced to operate at full generating capacity when the weather is warm. Thus the potential for power grid meltdowns. We here in Texas have built enough power plants that even on the hotest day of the year we are operating at about 50% of electrical generating capacity. The folks in those states think we are dumb and backwards....lol as I sit in air an conditioned home today.
