Hehe I agree with Macgyver. It's like that over here. I am more prepared than I have ever been in my life. I have a hefty two cylinder diesel genset, load tested for many 4 to 6 hour full power tests, and enough fuel for 48 hours continuous running . Magnetic oil pan warmer installed to keep the oil hot in case I need it. Record winter storms for weeks now, neighborhoood is full of tall trees ready to fall over and the damn power won't go off.
It's like when I used to ride Motorcycles, I had an axiom: If you have a patch kit you will never get a flat, but if you do not have a patch kit you will be stranded at the worst possible time.
