Maybe up in Montgomery County, Matthew (for those out of the area, it's the
poor section of the DC suburbs) -- but here in the Virginia 'burbs, closer
to DC than you used to live before you moved to Philadelphia, we certainly
haven't ever had "rolling blackouts."  I know not how you ever got that
idea, either -- I never heard of that in Arlington or Alexandria, or in DC,
either.  I'll take you word for it happening in Maryland, although it's
news to me.
