The Edge has two quick inteviews with Strogatz and Barabasi wrt the
Blackout.
<http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/blackout/blackout_index.html>

I like Strogatz's search for the appropriate metaphor for the Blackout. He
rejects the physical percolation and biological virus metaphors and settles
on the metaphor where "the grid suffered a violent allergic reaction, a sort
of anaphylactic shock."
