Abstract
This paper remembers the 1965 Northeast Blackout (sometimes referred to as the Great Northeast Blackout) expressed in 14 responses to an e-mail inquiry sent out on November 9, 1995. Except for editing for length and to conform the responses to a consistent format, the words are those of the individual authors from a vantage point exactly 30 years after this industry-changing event
