Hmmm... somehow I get the feeling you don't really believe it :)

I think it is a reasonable fake, and here's my evidence:  Look over towards the west coast where the desert regions of arizona and nevada can be found -- the "unlit" area is still vaguely-blue as opposed to dark blue/black; I'd expect the "blackout" region to appear to be the same -- because of the "darkness" of the supposedly blacked-out area, I imagine some creative soul and a copy of photoshop are behind this... ;)
