Hope they get your lights back on soon. I've done the extended power outage thing. It's no fun. Given my experiences with DP&L, I’d say this sounds like business as usual.

Good luck with the power repairs etc. :-) Re: ‘So is sitting in the dark.’ – It is good to note that your sense of humour still works Rick. Good luck with the power repairs etc. :-)

I bought a beautiful racer from a St. Vincent charity on ebay from the other side of the country... When it arrived, I couldn't believe what someone had decked it out with, and 1 minute later, I was at the computer going through the stolen bikes list trying to find a match for it. Thankfully, no matches, so I assume it was from an estate or someone just got a much nicer bike and decided to get rid of the old racer. True that.

In SW Ohio, we were without power for over a week back with Hurricane Ike. Not fun at all. Hang in there, we're all thinking of you. Sorry you’re still in the dark, Rick.

It said (AFAIR), blackouts over there are much more seriously compared to Europa, because the distributing-system is so bad. As soon as there is a blackout somewhere there's a chain-reaction to pull down other regions and problems are multplied. There had been a story about blackouts in U$A on german TV some time ago.

It's very frustrating. Ohio power companies sent resources east to help other states worst hit and so outages (like the one at my house) are taking a week to resolve instead of a day or so.

From what I get from the local media Sandy ceased to exist once it got past the Palisades. Lots of talk about the Jersey shore, and all the problems with NuYawk (bicycles are the only personal vehicles allowed in Manhattan), but AFAIK the entire state of OH and most of PA are under a news blackout.
