I have heard rumours about a fire in the Con Ed facility causing the plant to go offline. Somewhere after that plant went offline, supposedly other plants in the grid tripped due to the amount of load they were having to cover. US News on CNN is reporting that this is not an act of terrorism. Which is a good thing? Anyone have a good map of the US Power Grid and where the grids connect to each other? Might be useful information for the network guys to have available for disaster recovery situations. Scott On Thu, 14 Aug 2003, Malayter, Christopher wrote:
