Hello Oshiro Charles Pln Claire and all, Oshiro, in my country, blackout never happened in large area, but only in small ones. The same problems could slow down the development of a society and trigger an anxiety in living of citizens. Hope everything will be good soon.

Surely in the darkness many things can happen! For instance, the traffic became a chaos without traffic lights working properly, stuck elevators and so forth. It was a remarkable day for every Brazilian citizen who suffered from the blackout. That day I was wondering how dependend we are on electricity. We are 'addicted' to it and unable to live without. Imagine not being able to swich on the lights, take a warm shower, watch TV... I believe I couldn´t get used to life without electricity. How about you? LOL
Nice Friday for you all! Oshiro On Fri, Nov 13, 2009 at 10:15 AM, Xia Jun <[email protected]> wrote: Hello Eduardo and all, I am regret about this after skimming the news on cnn. My concern is that is there any alternative power sources? Such things terrible are likely to happen in the darkened chaos. How long did the citizens have to suffer this? Hope everything will be recovered quickly after the disaster.
