Actually, Perrier, it did NOT happen.  I cannot say that there might not
have been a health care facility *somewhere* that lost power but there were
no wide scale blackouts of hospitals and nursing homes.  Sorry, my friend,
just didn't happen.

I'd seek a more reliable source of information than Drudge which, as even a
great many conservatives will acknowledge, is one of the least objective
information sources on the internet.  Like listening to Glen Beck (or Keith
Olbermann, for that matter) as a source of unbiased news.

OK, as others have pointed out, we are wayyyyyyy off topic so I'm all done
with this thread.  You are welcome to the last word.
