My neighbor has been talking with the workers and they have no idea why.

9. It's pretty warm and I can charge thing a few blocks up the street

My biggest worry is tripping over the kittens in the dark.

10. They do love to gravitate toward feet

Two years ago, a dark room and a black cat led to 11 stitches in my knee

18. This is why I always leave a light on at night.

I had a couple of serious incidents after tripping over my big black dog. And the poor creature thought she did something wrong.

Or just a local thing?

11. Ugh

That outage map only lists a single outage, and there are no timezones listed. Are the times in standard UTC or some other provincial timezone?

5. I bet your mayor didn't endorse chris christie

So he had the power shut off like he closed that bridge in Jersey. So what if you are in San Fran, the mafia oops Christie fans live there too.

Sorry about the power though. Hopefully it will come back soon.

6. i feel for you

That's a long time to have no power. Happened to my street recently. We never found out why

[arcane1]

7. What?? Is it just your building, or block?

How extensive is it?

That probably means meters, so more people than that number are affected.

8. oakland october 1989...

The power was out all over...

[marlakay]

13. Husband was chosen to drive Bart after earthquake

To check it, took all night at only a few miles per hour. He stopped at last place before going under water to SF, where normally you have view overlooking SF, Oakland, east bay, all bridges.

Said he saw a sight never to be seen again, black as ink. Not a single light anywhere.

He was on train during earthquake tracks waving, etc.

16. I was stationed at NAS Alameda

I had a studio apartment on MacArthur blvd in Oakland. I got home about 4:30 that day.

I remember after it was over the power out everywhere. Everyone was in the street.

14. Here in SF in 89. The power was out for days. P
