Three times in the past week we have lost power here. Really? Exactly how hard is it to keep the power up?
Granted, two of those times were cars driven by drunk drivers going through power poles. I could add two weeks ago we had one of the last of the areas chestnut trees planted to commemorate World War I go down and took the power lines with it. And then yesterday a backhoe went through an underground line several miles from here.
Point is that NONE of these occurrences are even on the grid for where I live, however due to the automated switches installed: a power surge or drop causes the computers to go crazy switching power grids to try and keep the airport up and then take everything else down in the area - every single time!
Personally, I would opt for the airport to relocate to Oregon, let them deal with the pollution and traffic that local feature provides us! I know, I know, so politically incorrect! Airports are important - but to whom is the real question ... And maybe they should move to Oregon to be closer to their beloved airport! :)
So, no power for most of the week and I am hoping to get enough internet time to just catch up with this week!
