Power out in Central, Harvard; delays on Red Line

[hyperliminal.livejournal.com]

Power down, exploding manholes!

My office near Harvard Square lost power entirely, and so have many but not all homes, businesses, etc. Who knows when it'll be back up. Don't take the red line if you don't have to.

My office at Harvard University was completely out of power, too.

I have had it up to here with the Red Line.
Between the MBTA and Nstar it's a wonder we're not all dead by now.

I must have just escaped in the nick of time... when I went through Central shortly after five, some lights were out but there were no delays.

I live between Central and Harvard and the power was out there until 10pm -- and had probably been out since midafternoon, because my laptop battery was drained by the time I got home at 6ish. I bet it took so long to fix because of the strike.
