kaini Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 4-5 days of no subways potentially, this could possibly fuck the economy? it's interesting - i hope everyone is staying safe - but it's interesting, nonetheless. it can take just a little twitch from nature to completely fuck up all the infrastructure that we've spent years upon years building.

Guest A/D Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Indeed. Rest easy, unidentified man. I'm in Brooklyn now and the winds are getting strong. Streetlights went out for a bit, but came back on. House power has browned out. It seems inevitable that the power will go down, but we're fine so far. I'm guessing it'll be out in the middle of the night. Everybody in the storm - crack your windows open a bit so they don't blow out! I'm staying at my girlfriend's house and hoping I cracked mine enough at home before I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
