Thurs 11.14.13 – The lights went out in our building, the tennis courts & vending machine, the community center, and other parts of our block at about 8:20pm last night and did not come back on until after 9am this morning.
The two big excitements were even with one block of lights out how many more stars I could see clearly last night and then at 6:04am this morning watching SCE lifting a new transformer in with a crane on a flat bed truck.
The transformer for our building, the infernally evil vending machines, and the tennis courts is out. I can see stars.

Over an hour later the blackout continues. No security, no SCE, no help. But the big emergency generator is on to no effect.

@achipa @M0zilla M42, the Pleiades, and other clusters are quite lovely right now. It is just our block out, not the whole area.
