For the second day in a row, Con Edison and union workers are at the bargaining table trying to hammer out a contract, but the sides are far apart.  Governor Cuomo office says he is monitoring the situation closely as the City faces a weekend of triple digit temperatures.  Negotiations are expected to continue through this evening and into tomorrow.  Meanwhile union workers continue to protest outside Con Edison's headquarters.  WBAI's Linda Perry was there and sends this report.
