@BeschlossDC I remember that. My dad was on an LIRR train and got stuck in a tunnel. Got home REALLY late. -
@BCISLEMAN@BeschlossDC If he got out via spiral stairs behind Bellevue, my Dad went down into the tubes to rescue people. NYPD

@BeschlossDC [1/_] Think for most ppl, this was the really fun blackout: [a] IIRC, cool (not cold) weather; [b] lots of amusing novelty; -
.
@BeschlossDC [2/_] [c] in more "innocent" era, little crime. Even then, tho, tght if happened a 2nd time, in hot weathr there'd be trouble. -
.
@BeschlossDC [3/_] Third, post-Giuliani, blackout seemed lots safer, but novelty was gone (plus lots of backup generators to "ruin" fun).
