I was about the same age as Chris during the big blackout and although we didn't live in the area, I remember it was the ONLY news story being reported for about 24 hours because New York City was completely shut down and gazillions of people were affected. Some of the stories mentioned a fireball and speculated about a possible connection. Already being interested in UFOs, I was intrigued by those stories and thought War of the Worlds might possibly be coming true, a thought which thrilled and terrified me. After things returned to normal, the blackout stories just faded away along with the fireball. Have any Ufologists seriously researched this?

I have never seen any serious research on this. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but I have never seen it.
