I'm watching a NY based sports talk show and it just occurred to me - What do they do if a baseball game is going on in the 'total' path of the eclipse??? Halt the game until the eclipse is over??? Or start the night-time lighting a half hour ahead of time and play through it (it takes that long for those lights to get to full intensity). If it is true that there will be total darkness for however long a time, then it's not just teenage girls texting as they drive who will be inconvenienced, but all manner of outdoors activities. I just read that the temp is expected to drop 10º during the totality. That won't last but it could be...distracting...
