Remnants of hurricane Ike clashed with a cold front over Cincinnati yesterday causing sustained high winds. I read this morning there were a few people crushed by falling trees. Duke Energy says that at some point 90% of their customers here were without power, and it could be days or weeks before all service is restored.

I am still in the dark here after more than 16 hours. Last time I checked my downtown office still had power. I can keep my iPhone charged there and still get my daily XMTS fix.

Regards,
Rex.
