the article.... (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030928/ap_on_re_eu/italy_blackout&cid=518&ncid=716)
So first there was a massive blackout that affected us all the way up into Canada. Then there was a blackout in England a few weeks back as I recall.
And now there's this massive outage in Italy.
An official of the Italian power company Enel said electricity connections in the Alps between Italy and France broke down before dawn for unknown reasons.
Just a little bit strange.

It isn't really that strange. The US was bound to have a massive power outage and Europe has had one of the hottest summers in its history. In France, I heard the number of deaths due to the heat is in the thousands.
Large-scale brawls and the destruction of cars has been reported in Rome. But, we're uncivilized Americans, right????

waaaaaaaiittaaaaminnnittttt....
France borders Italy and there are French people there... France is connected to England by the Chunnel and there are French people there, and Canada borders America and there are French people there too... I may be going out on a limb here, but......
Could it be that French women with their hairy pits had something to do with it??????

What about Italian women and THEIR excessive body hair? The nipple patches alone could leave an entire continent powerless by your reasoning...

Maybe it has something to do with OPEC deciding to cut oil exports by 3% (doubtful), but most likely its just people overusing the system.

I think its the record number of air purifiers and box fans being used in north west Italy to keep that fucking stench from France out.
