I still think people don't grasp the situation. I watched countless transformers blow up first hand. Countless tress fell adding another complex to the process of restoring the grids. I can't imagine what could have blown at substations when things went down while there was still power in them. The fact that we had power restored so quickly is nothing short of amazing. This is not just the local guys too, there are utility companies here from around the country. They have to learn all that is going on, where to go, etc etc and I can only humble myself in knowing how far they are from home to help bring some normality to my life. I really think people need to step back and appreciate it all. I still don't have power where I currently rent and I have no problem waiting for it.
