I've been affected by the East Coast blackout, and not just because there were fewer of you to read my blog. My sister and her family are coming into town from Detroit, which was at the western edge of the area without power. Last night they called to say that they weren't sure what would happen to their flight. Fortunately they did manage to get in the air, albeit two hours late. Their flight has just landed and they will arrive in an hour or so.
