Soutern New Jersey just had a power down for about 1 hour and 30 minutes... Fortunately I was prepared and already had the generator ready to go...

Unfortunately the generator run out of gasoline, but that was easily fixed as well... A piece of hose and my wife's Corvette sitting right next to it... ;-)

Anyways, the newsgroup should not have experienced any down time, neither have the websites as far as I know.

Have fun!

Sacrificing your wife's Corvette for the cause is true dedication!

Oh, I put it there completely fueled up in case it would run out of gasoline... No way of driving that car in this type of weather anyways...

Well, last time it was empty from the start... This time it was not and gave up on me after about 20 minutes... :-(

We use it for outdoor job too. I might this weekend as at least two trees around the house didn't make it through the storm...

So far we seem to be fine. I will have to check the damage on the property later today. I know two trees didn't make it. There might be more.

There are enough trees around my place that I'd leave if a big windstorm came up. Too dangerous. Glad those two at your place seem to have missed you!
