There is a power outage in San Francisco affecting a large area South
of Market Street, including China Basin.  The outage begain shortly
after 12:00am PST Wednesday and was caused by flooding of an
underground PG&E transformer.  Current estimated restoral of power by
PG&E is around 6:00pm Wednesday. (Prior estimates were for 12:00 noon).

A big lesson to be learned by all.  Rumor has it that we now have
approval now for the purchase of our own generator.
