California power - its cold, its dark
Approximately one-third of California's power generating capacitiy is off-line. The California system operator has called a "stage 3" power alert, requiring *interruptiable* customers be interrupted until 10pm tonight. They are not instituting rotating blackouts of other customers at this time.

Any word on the cause of the outage, did several reactors scram at the same time or is this a transmission issue?

Apparently, it's maintenance. http://www.cnn.com/2000/US/12/07/cal.energy.01/index.html -- Dominic J. Eidson "Baruk Khazad! Khazad ai-menu!" - Gimli ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.the-infinite.org/ http://www.the-infinite.org/~dominic/
