So far they are saying 100% not related to terrorism. The gov. of New Mexico, Clinton's former energy sec., said it had to do with lack of transmission lines regulation and other stuff the politicos don't have the backbone to vote for, due to the heavy lobbying of power companies.
From the looks of it, New Yorkers are doing themselves proud, again! They all look calm and as though they are really trying to keep it bearable.
My daughter in CT has power, unless her answering machine runs on batteries, which I am sure it doesn't. With five-year old twins they never have spare batteries for anything not toy-related!
