I'm surprised that no one's already said this (at least not that I saw -
soooo many messages) but if that was true to everywhere than a lot of things
would be different at the Dursley house wouldn't it? When Dobby, Harry, or
the Weasleys use magic there is no note made about how suddenly the house is
plunged into darkness or how all the appliances burn out.
In P/SS:
When Dumbledore apparates on Privet Drive (I'm assuming since he appears "so
suddenly and silently you'd of thought he just popped out of the ground") He
still needs to turn of the street lights - one by one in fact.
Also with all these shooting stars, Vernon is still able to work like
normal. No phone problems, no electricity problems. Its not on the news
about wide spread outages, ect.
