No Power in the Northern Part of the City this Morning.

I am posting this from my smart phone. It's around 8 a.m. and the electricity has been out about an hour now. This allowed me some additional time to contemplate things this morning.  These rumminations led me to think about social media outlets and how they could help in situations such as these. Imagine that the city of Lake Worth had a FaceBook page or a Twitter account.  It could announce outages, areas affected and likely restoration times. We would learn whether it was a palm frond or a small animal sooner.

I know, you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one...
