Power Outage!
Well... today at around 8:20 PM their was a power surge, ive heard some stories about a BOOM in BSB basement....

The construction outside BSB was not active at the time. [fact]

Power to JHE and BSB is totally out, a fire alarm was tripped in BSB, and a while later, JHE alarm as well (for security reasons to clear the building). [fact]

Also, GS building / accellerator building seems to have no power as well. And reports of various other buildings with no power.

Mary Keyes had a power surge at about the same time (8:20), but currently the power is still on. [fact]

Was told by security services to grab a coffee as BSB will be down for a while. [fact]

Hamilton fire department is on the scene at BSB building. [fact]

-Kevin
