Okay, just received word that they're doing it: rolling black- outs for 90 minutes at a time, around the Bay Area (not just in the city.) http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/gate/archive/2000/06/14/power.DTL It'll be interesting to see what kind of outages this causes; for one thing, Sean's power may go out.
