When the the Northeast U.S. and Ontario lost all power.
Toronto, NYC, Newark, Buffalo, Detroit, Windsor, London, ON, Rochester, Philadelphia (i think), Pittsburgh, Cleveland.
At that time I lived on Long Island, and everything just went of. I was watching cartoons. I turned on the radio, NYC and Toronto were powerless, people were crossing the Bridges out of Manhattan, leaving the subways. People were directing traffic. NYC was in chaos.

It was about 15 people outside of my aunts apartment in Brooklyn. We were listening to music and talking. Then the street lights shut off. We were freaking out, but we figured that it was a blackout. An ice cream truck stopped in front of the apartment and started giving out ice cream, since it was going to spoil. I know some people that were in elevators, on trains, buses and stuck in traffic, but I was getting free ice cream.

I live just outside Philadelphia, which would have been the next grid to go if we didn't have some sort of circuit to stop it. I was glued to CNN until the power came back on. It makes me feel a part of things. It was amazing to see so many people walking across the Brooklyn Bridge to get home. I think it might have been exciting to be there, but I wouldn't have wanted to sleep on the library steps if rats were running around us! That would have freaked me out!

i live in cleveland. i got stranded at a friends house. i was helping her put together a table and thought i blew a fuse with the drill. it took us retards almost an hour to realize the power was out. we ended up grilling a bunch of meat before it went bad and sat around drinking beer looking at the sky. the stars were amazing without all the light pollution. and i also didn't have to go to work. i thought it was great!!
