Holly, I'm glad that you guys are safe! I hope that everyone else stuck in the snowy parts is too....I know I joke about the snow and stuff, but where I grew up, storms were the norm. We'd lay in extra foodstuffs and things, and at least had snowmobiles, so that when the going got tough, we could still get going. We'd never lose power like it seems everyone does now, and it certainly didn't take weeks to get it all back on! Only once did it take that much time, and that was after an ice storm, not a snowstorm! Our power companies were pretty good about keeping trees and stuff away from the lines, even if it pissed folks off when they'd come through and mangle, I mean, trim the trees. I hope ya'll stay warm and safe....and don't be foolish and try to go outside too soon...if the powers that be are telling you to stay home, then by all means, LISTEN to them! Emergency services folks are going to have enough to keep up with the true emergencies....having to go save idjits who were just too dumb to listen is just an added strain on their resources. Consider the preceding today's public service message.......
