Black out

I am not sure why, and it seems from news reports that the electrical company is not sure either, but I am sitting in the middle of a blackout right now.

The power has been out for about 4 hours now. I am told by the MSM that it will be back on within another 30 mins and that it is on in other areas of town now. Of course they still don't know why its out.

This is post is, more than anything, just to say that I blogged in a blackout.

Let's hear it for the UPS and a bit of ingenuity!

(update 10:25pm : After a little more than 8 hours blacked out we finally have power. They cannot tell us for how long or why, although rumor has it that the dam at Ashiak went out. Maybe we will know more tomorrow. Till then its rolling blackouts and who knows. Current temp inside 20c outside -22c)
