The service interruption was apparently a result of a major regional power failure in Northern Virginia. I'm curious whether it was AOL or their providers who suffered from the power failure. I would expect AOL would have back-up power.

Was anyone else effected in Northern Virginia? Other than a couple of stories about AOL IM being down, I couldn't find any news coverage of a major regional power outage in Northern Viriginia. The only story I found was an electrical fire at Dullas Town Center near the Gap store.
VEPCO customer service didn't know of any power outages.
