Narrative:
When cleared for takeoff, captain advanced power and autothrottles were armed, power normal. I called 80 KTS, throttle hold, and then noticed the right generator off light on EICAS. It was near 100 KTS, and I immediately advised the captain, who aborted the takeoff. Speed was near 100 KTS. I called tower and advised them that we were aborting. They wanted us to continue past runway 22R and turn right on runway 18/36. We did that and asked if we cold go to the runway 32R pad and assess the situation. Tower advised to stay where we were, it was ok. I called maintenance and ramp for a gate. We moved to the runway 32R pad and ord operations came by and advised that 2 tires were flat. After that, there was no question of any taxi. Operations and maintenance handled the removal of the passenger who were calm and didn't seem upset by the abort. The captain made a good decision in the short time he had to evaluate the information. He kept everyone informed of what was going on and did a super job. He coordinated the crew activities and handled the situation as if it was normal. Supplemental information from acn 448218: maintenance later informed us that the fuse plugs had deflated the tires. Passenger and crew deplaned at the pad.
