*thinks of whitty comeback* *gives up* You can still run along the subway tracks/turn off the neighboors power from the circuit breaker.

So, here's a great question:
Isn't LQ based in NY? If so, how come it wasn't effected? Amazing webmaster even creates his own electricity! Jeremy? Any comments on this?

Cool

Is it co-loed? Maybe it's powered by a large farm of electric eels.....and gerbals running on wheels connected to a generator...

Power outages are cool, 'cause you can just go screaming through an intersection since you don't have any red lights!

This is who turned out the lights:

Don't confuse me with the facts. My mind's made up.

Who else thinks there's gonna be a big baby boom in the northeast about nine months from now?

I have no idea who did this (our mayor is so confident the Canadians are at fault - these french again

) but they left me struggling at work for 14 hrs after the power was restored.
