New York, London, Tokyo… (Updated)

28 08 2003

Heh. When the lights went out in New York, CNN interviewed some guy from PowerGen UK who said something like “this is very unlikely to happen somewhere in Europe”. And what happened today? The power grid around London, owned by National Grid UK, went down, causing chaos in London. And some guy called Alan Basford said what we all thought in the first moment but were afraid to say aloud:

This disruption seems very similar to what happened in New York, and it’s also a bit strange the two events have happened close together.

Tinfoil hats up, folks!

P.S.: If anybody knows who sang the song with “New York, London, Tokyo” in the refrain, please mail me!

Now I know why I couldn’t find the song for that refrain: Because it is “New York, Rio, Tokio…”. Doh! -D
