A blackout in Venezuela is always a scary thing. For years we have been gambling on an imminent collapse of our electric system.
In the provinces, blackouts are a regular occurrence, usually more than once a day. In the main cities, though, authorities do their best to keep appearances. When it happens in the capital, of course there is reason to panic.

Today, for more than eight hours, we were thinking about plans Bs and Cs in case this blackout becomes a recurrente issue. I hope not, but here you can never tell.
