There were a few lights near the train station and RVC seem to be back up, but I they were down earlier when left for Queens.

Oh forgot about the Cove. RVC was up because RVC has a dedicated power plant. A few of my friends live there, and they only lost power for like 10 minutes. There power plants also have the ability to generate, unlike ours. What grade are you going into?

I'm a little older than you. I haven't thought about what grade I was in for a long time.

Rochester suburb here. Most of the area is still in the dark - I just got power back 3 minutes ago. Heard a press conference on the radio right before the power came on that said that they were given the go ahead to turn on a certain number of megawatts (I think it was 175) which is about 80-100,000 customers. Supposedly once all of those people are back they will be at 1/3 of people with power again.

LOL. Well, it's good to know I'm not the only person from Oceanside that goes to this forum.
