In my life I don’t think I’ve seen a power outage longer than a couple hours, and that was maybe once? I don’t even remember the last time I’ve seen one. Maybe experienced 10-15 in my whole life, with most lasting minutes.

Am I just really lucky in my area? Or is this the experience most people have?

Texans need not answer, I already know.

  2 days with no power? Damn! I can see the allure of gas much more in this situation

I live in Seattle, and this has been my experience. Techno-city powered by dams = reliable
