[QUOTE=senior citizen;856156]We often discuss this very subject amongst ourselves.....
Terrorists would do more damage by just screwing up our power grid.

[B][I]If anyone recalls the New York/New Jersey "blackout" of 1965

Yes, I remember it well. I was home with a 2-week old baby. My husband walked home all the way from Wall St. to E. 82nd St. A neighbor offered me candles. City police climbed the stairs and knocked on every apartment door. There was no rioting, very little looting. The blackout 10 years ago was not so peaceful.
