Mine's out in the shed , which has it's own breaker box with the means to
back-feed the house . I just need to pipe the exhaust outside when I fire it
up .


Backfeeding is illegal here and the local AHD and the POCO are cracking
down on it. If they catch you backfeeding, they disconnect at the
transformer and will not restore service until an electrical inspection
is passed. Basic electrical inspections are $250 and the utility charges
an additional $75 reconnect fee. I suspect the electrical inspector
could flag any other violations he finds so repair costs could escalate.

Seems to me it would be cheaper (and safer) to put in a proper interlock
kit...but that's just me. ;-)

Do you live that close to the edge that you couldn't stay in a hotel for a
week? I sure as hell don't. I suppose there are many who live EBT payment to
EBT payment.
The last BIG ice storm that hit in NY kept power out for a long time up
north. It also blocked all the roads with downed trees and heavy ice.

Roads are blocked for a few days, at most. You can't last a few days without
washing your shorts?

Try closer to two weeks in many places. With power out for over 3 weeks
in some spots.


Staying in a hotel wouldn't have been an option because only a very few
still had power and most didn't have water or power. Plus with the roads
closed and blocked the way they were you couldn't have gotten out of the
area anyway.

The issue isn't an emergency generator. I'm with you there. The issue is
about stupid clothes lines for an emergency and the holier than thou crap from
the moron who thinks he's better than all his neighbors because he knows how
to use one. giggle

We use clothes lines and indoor racks as a general rule. Cheaper and
less damaging to the clothes.
Back-up power for everything as well.


Walking was very dangerous simply because everything was coated with
2-4" of ice.

2-4" of ice is a stretching things a bit, unless you're talking about ice
fishing.

Nope. 2-4" was the normal amount for the storm. Places it was even worse.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_A..._Storm_of_1998


You can still see remnants of the storm on Google maps if you look,
large areas where the largest trees now are only a few years old.

Sure. As I've said, BTDT. ...but a clothes line as an important part of
emergency preparedness. Get real.

My hurricane plane is to get in the car and drive, *BEFORE* it hits. ...and
I'm not anywhere near the coast.

I don't have that option.

I know all about it. I live in central N.Y.
Being a FF/EMT I get to play a lot when things like that happen. For me
it's usually, make sure my power is up and running, hit the station for
the same then start clearing snow so we can get in/out of the station.
Then visit shut-ins and check on elderly and special needs people. Then
it's wait for the normal stuff.

EBT payment.

In an ice storm or hurricane power outage the nearby hotels that have
power are packed with families who need them far more than I do, with
the overflow in temporary shelters in schools. Necessities sell out
quickly and service/repair people are booked solid for months. Many
roads including mine stay blocked until the utility crews remove the
wires so the fallen trees can be cut up safely.

The difference from Katrina is that we in New England expect to take
care of ourselves and ask FEMA to write checks later. Twice I've spent
the week clearing fallen trees with my chainsaw, then patching the
holes in the roof before the next storm.


Mississipi and Georgia were hit as hard or harder than Lousiana by
Katrina..and they simply got stuff done.

Well, I'm not a metrosexual (or...) so my wardrobe is pretty cheap. It gets
turned over every couple of years and I almost always ruin them before they
wear out. Good enough.

Back-up power for everything as well.

I can understand that if you live in the third world, like New England. I've
only once been without power for more than 12 hours (three days), so it's not
a good place to allocate money. As I said in an earlier post, if I'd been a
week without power, it wouldn't happen a third time.

Like Florida. We did fine after the two years of hurricane activity
in this area, until FEBLA showed up. Their contractor destroyed our
private road with a front end loader. Instead of cutting up and loading
the fallen trees, they simply put the bucket down on them and dragged
them down the street, and tore out most of the asphalt. We had already
cut up the trees onto pieces that would fit a dump truck, but the SOBs
were too lazy to do their job properly. They did it right on the public
roads, but not in our subdivision.

Then you better leave a week or more before it hits. The biggest

He wasn't in Alabama in the early '70s when ice took town the main HV

Forte Agent 3.3. It works just fine unless our beloved troll goes out

Sometimes Stormin' just changes the subject line. That breaks a
thread but the "Reference: " information is still in the headers so
you can trace back for the context without much effort.

Lately, Stormin' likes to cut someone's post and paste it into a new
thread, and then put in his comment, on top. That removes the ref
info from the headers since, to usenet, it IS a new thread.

Now you may ask "why". I won't try to explain what goes on in his
mind. It's part and parcel of what lead him to post a couple snippy
replies in this thread when someone dared to say anything that didn't

He wasn't in Alabama in the early '70s when ice took town the main HV
feed across the state, from a nuclear power plant. Some areas were
without power for six weeks. It was the first heavy snow fall in 20
years, and a lot of power lines weren't built for the temperature so
they were snapping or pulling down poles.
