Hello Eduardo, June, Reinaldo, Jun and all Jun, the outage lasted for almost 5 hours or so to affected areas get recovered completely. Surely in the darkness many things can happen! For instance, the traffic became a chaos without traffic lights working properly, stuck elevators and so forth. It was a remarkable day for every Brazilian citizen who suffered from the blackout. That day I was wondering how dependend we are on electricity. We are 'addicted' to it and unable to live without. Imagine not being able to swich on the lights, take a warm shower, watch TV... I believe I couldn´t get used to life without electricity. How about you? LOL
