#3 Wasn't there some snarky article from England (or someplace else in Europe) posted recently about the power outage in the US?

Hopefully nobody will get hurt over there, but I admit that I am amused by this.

#4 Odd... I wouldn't have expected the British electrical system to have been de-regulated...

Seriously, hope things get back up-to-speed quickly. The Underground isn't place I'd want to be without power (although I'd fear being trapped in Harrod's a bit more).
