    More accurately “the city of nuclear-powered lights.”
    By now there should be another city somewhere (most likely in China) that has more lights than Paris, but Paris should still be the one most electrified by nuclear power.

    Paris isn't called The City of Lights because of their number of lights, or because of nuclear power.

    Please love yourself.

        Is it because of the beer?

        I was only joking

          Is it because they’re all a little light in the loafers?

            So I take it that the alleged power outage and ensuing social media frenzy both amounted to little or nothing.

              Correct.

                  @Doctor-Phibes

                  I have no doubt it that it was cathartic to
                  play with the main power breaker in the middle of the night.

                  Just another mystery of theodicy.

                    Once is an accident (the high-speed train outage).

                    Twice is a coincidence (the lights go out)

                    Three times....

                    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                      I know we have discussed this before, and I think that most on this forum board are in agreement, but protests like these just make me hate the cause they are representing.

                      Don't know why they think it would turn me on to their side. 🤷

                        I noticed the fiber optic cables are gay colored. That's probably the cause.

                          Maybe that is their intention.
