I've been hearing on the news about this outage too. Hopefully it'll get resolved tonight but heard some report that may not be repaired til tomorrow :(
I was just down in South OC yesterday too. Oh, also heard parts of Arizona are affected?!

Yes! I heard it goes into Arizona..and Mexico..and the power company has NO idea what caused it! I always worry about sabotage..we are so vulnerable to any infrastructure stuff!

The FBI says it's not terror related. I agree that we are very vulnerable. I always worry about dams, probably becuase I go to the lake quite a bit.

Yes! And we have a dam straight up the canyon from us..my husband assures me we are high enough not to worry...but we DO live in earthquake country!

My dad and grandma live out there. I can't get ahold of them but I heard they are going to try to fix it by tomorrow night.. It sounds real fishy how close it is to September 11th and all... I guess it started in Arizona and connected to California

[MENTION=2092]JAKEISGREAT[/MENTION], Fires and dams have me more concerned than power, not to mention the pipeline. Easy targets in remote places. It'll happen again unfortunatey, I really believe that - just a matter of time.

I had my share of earthquakes growing up there, you can keep them. If I want to feel the ground move beneath my feet it'll be me that's making it move. :D
