[atlasonescorpio10]

We just got power back in SD like 45 minutes ago an I was told it could of been terrorism... That was crap!

[Matt00851]

@atlasonescorpio10 a terrorist act? thats shit. power fails cause the transformers over load and so the system shuts down

[atlasonescorpio10]

@Matt00851 That's what I stated, it was a load of crap about being terrorism stupid.

[gumby2092]

I am in San Luis, AZ and the power has restored all across Yuma County,AZ also Imperial county, CA, San Diego county, CA and Orange county,CA so our power is back to normal and it was not an act of terrorism

[megalorain]

Wait - Whuut! I smell an ENRON

[xbox360sucks1234]

comet elenin if you dont know what that is look it up the world will be out of power for a few days in a few days this isn't a joke

[bypassthelaw]

They discovered cut wires. Figures... and here I thought it was the solar flares :( don't ask for link or source, it's on TV right now ;D i know you all hate the dinosaur media, but for this, it's an exception.

[AdamElseify]

@bypassthelaw haha, you really think they're gonna say "A solar flare caused millions of people to lose power". It isn't even proven that Solar flares cause power outages. It would hurt the economy to even suggest such a thing because solar activity is ramping UP.

[misshotyoga]

@AdamElseify Actually it is. Haven't you heard about the massive solar flare storm of the 1800's?  Also look up Dr. Brooks Agnew's recent interview on tv about how solar flares will mess with our infrastructure and could also set people on fire who are close to electronics.

[RamonaFromPomona]

Now they know what a brown out is.. or should I say black out. It has been way too hot for too long. Just think how many a/c units are running and everything else. Time to upgrade systems and technology.

[AdamElseify]

There was just a 2.1X-class Solar flare and Coronal Mass Ejection directed at earth 2 days ago. (it takes a few days to get here) This is NOT a coincidence. Brace for earthquakes.

[neoplasmax]

Proof there is no contingency plan when a grid goes down.

[2bRealist]

...but Republicans say we DON'T need to invest in infrastructure O_o

well, except for... Ron Paul 2012!! <-- investing in America, not war

[abarzilai664]

@2bRealist But then your gramps will be dumpster diving cause Paul believes SS is "unconstitutional."

[Licmycat]

Guilty of sins?

[goscott4]

X-Class Solar Flare...

REV 18

[cagedtigersteve]

OMG...this is terrorism!
