One good memory from the 2003 blackout in NYC

[Black]

I have to admit I don't remember anything about a blackout in 2003... so I looked it up:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northeast_Blackout_of_2003
Interesting bit about power lines sagging due to heating up under heavy load-- didn't know that.
My own power was out for 3 days around this time in 2008, but nobody cared...
