We've got the AC going almost constantly (or until my wife feels too chilly).

Speaking of the grid, we had a partial outage on Saturday afternoon. All the major appliances went out, but some things were still working (master bedroom, DSL modem/Airport AP, Cordless phone, etc.) On the other hand, the elevator was out and that's the only way you can get to the underground garage so no car available.

So it was quiet and dark but we still had Internet and phone service. Betsy and I watched some videos on my Powerbook and I played some music on iTunes.

All in all, not the worst time we've had but it took several hours to get things back up.
