I guess the point I was trying to make was even a generator under these conditions cant always be relied on as a back up plan. Its only helpful if you can keep it running.

Jenn, I hope your power is back. I wasn't trying to make light of your situation.

its all good,,,and yes we have power back. Just saying a generator can be a life saver but I just think too many people RELY on them and dont have a plan "B" so to speak. What if you cant get gas, what if the generator s&^%$ the bed, It just amazes me that so many people dont have other means to even cook a simple meal or an alternate way of getting potable water unless it comes from the store or tap.
