Blackout

Sao Paulo got blackened out tonight. People got stuck on the subway and on the elevators, traffic in the whole city jammed, among other things.

It's been said that after GEAS released their report, the number of sucides in the world peaked. I'm afraid the blackout tonight have affected the suicides; a blackout after a report dooming the humanity isn't pleasing.
My kids doesn't even know what the GEAS is, but i'm already trying to figure out a way to explain to them.
I confess it shocked me knowing that humanity is in its deadline. No more Dance Monkeys, Dance -- an amazing analysis of our race, by the way; no more rapes; no more World Cups; no more pollution; no more car crash; no more candy bars; no more cellphones; no more helicopters; no more pasta; no more idiot blog posts when you desperately need to write and then you start flushing what's in your head, writing using a language that's not your native language, [edit] and a few minutes later you realize you malformed a sentence, and then you sit in front of the computer and your fingers seems to merge with the keyboard; don't know if that's good or bad though. [/edit]
Humanity really is weird, and i am too.

I wonder how the nightmare i had and our path fits in

I had a nightmare last night

Last night i had the most frightening dream in ages.
I was walking down the street, going somewhere i can't remember. All of a sudden, a huge and dusty cloud of sand covered the whole city, and the city was wrapped with a deadly silence.
No one was around. It was just me and the street.
And i stood there, paralyzed, fearing something bigger than me, when a huge³ nuclear computer began to appear in the horizon.
"OMG,OMG,OMG!!! Sâo Paulo became the geekland?!"
The machine created eyes, and then a mouth popped up, and the machine started speaking to me: "Run. Run as fast as you can. I'll begin the countdown in 5 minutes. Deep in your heart you know where you need to go, just go!"

I started running, and i realized i left my wife and the kids home, so i tried to go back and grab'em along, but i couldn't run anymore. I tried, i swear i did, but i didn't move an inch!
And so i saw a cliff, and a sign with some letters on it. I don't know what the letters were, but somehow they seemed familiar.

I woke up sweating, desperately gasping for hope. I calmed down, sipped on some coffee and decided to write this down.
