Update: I can see a PG&E crew working in the trees under floodlights. So it may be intentional. At least all the secondary / emergency LED lighting kicked in (added a few after the last quake) LED candles were on at the time.

Power cut (blackout) About an hour left before the server hibernates. Comms / wifi / internet looks good for about 4 hours+

Amazon Echo did not know about bacon / the future / the mission. Knew what consciousness was. Was confused as expected by Has .... On the Plus side, Easter egg triggered by * open the Pod Bay Doors Did not know what the 39 steps were.
