What was amazing was how many folks just went right through the not working traffic light right by the post office at Nelson Ferry.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wonder if this had anything to do with the blackouts around Taco Mac and Sawicki&#039;s? My wife had lunch at Sawicki&#039;s today and relates this tale after talking to the owner. Sounds like they were unrelated but unfortunate coincidences:

&quot;Sawicki&#039;s refrigeration cases stopped working a couple of days ago. Something about tri-phasic power needed to run AC units. So she called the power company and apparently some wire under the ground was funky. And when they went to fix it, it tripped a bigger problem up at the corner...&quot;

...taking Taco Mac down with them, on what is no doubt one of their biggest business days of the year (first day of March Madness). When I drove by around 8:15 last night, the place was dark, there were emergency repair vehicles all around the premises (including a crane truck), and several despondent people (employees? would-be customers?) sitting on the curb and standing in the parking lot.]]></description>
