Based on my travels today through Indiana and Ohio I can say that our power infrastructure needs some heavy duty work. I counted over 6 small towns with no power.
On the other hand, I saw a heck of a lot more people outside walking around in these areas despite the intense winds. I guess when you lose power you've got to do something to entertain yourself.
@teknonomicon Have you read or heard about "The World made by Hand", by James H Kunstler?
Great reading, loved the series, waited for the next installment as he was writing it.
