During our last near miss, power was never lost but there was a severe gas shortage.

How did you fare in last year's cold snap, when a large number of people in your area were without electricity? I read that too many 'renewables' went belly-up compounding the problem.

We had an epic ice storm here in 2008. We were without electricity for 1.5 weeks. I sourced gas for a crappy generator and automobiles by driving east, where the storm's impact was nowhere as bad as where we live.

Without gasoline, we would have been in deep shite, the least of which would have been burst pipes.
