agreed!

Why?
Does one nationwide blackout warrant purchasing, properly installing and obtaining the necessary licence to operate a generator?

This is the first time electricity went by you?



I have a generator installed at my house with an automatic transfer switch. Electricity goes at least once per month. Sometimes it's for under an hour and sometimes it can be 2 hrs plus. For this month alone we had a scheduled shutdown last sunday (9am-3pm), and then this outage last night which was for about 5 hrs.
All this sheit about our natural gas and they pushing the use here. There are much quieter natural gas gensets for home use.They are much smaller/neater as well. Would love to buy one but there is the issue of re-fuelling.

all this big bacchanal for a little 5 hour outage... Imagine if a natural disaster occurs and we're out of power for 3-4 days, I swear some people might kill themselves.

which is 9.21 pm
power went later at 12.45 am or the whereabouts.
What I was trying to point out is that if the pic was dated today, or early this morning, she went back in time and did a photoshoot?
