I'm in downtown Boston (Back Bay), and things seem normal here.  No local
outages reported as of yet (6:25 PM EST), that I can tell.

Sure, "Blame Canada, Blame Canada..."  ;-)

This whole thing should have interesting implications for infrastructure
upgrades.  Or it'll tell us something about consumption, and taking these
things for granted.

Solar panels, anyone?  ;-)
