CNN Reporting A Lot Of Folks Still Without Power

By Friday at lunchtime, still lots of people without power. Rolling blackouts may be instituted within the next few days. I feel pretty spoiled here in Boston -- even when I woke up this morning and looked at the electric clock radio, I noticed it was on and NOT blinking -- meaning we hadn't lost power even once. Reminds me a bit of 9/11, worrying about our friends only 2 1/2 hours away in NYC, not sure if we could send help. Wanting to do whatever we can.
