You are correct, Sir. We were hit with an ice storm a couple of years ago, and it's amazing how helpless you can become when the power grid goes down.
I was in pretty good shape, have a NG wall furnace for a backup, runs without electricity. Besides, I have a 8,000 watt generator, only problem is buying gas for it, can't pump it without power. Plus propane camping stoves, lanterns, etc.
I was getting close to firing up the generator, stringing Romex to the two neighbors I liked, (would have even done it for the asshole I don't like, had he asked), hot wiring their furnaces and running cords to their fridges, but the juice came back on.
Had everyone been without power everywhere, and the stores only stock app three days provisions, after a couple of weeks things would get ugly.
Modern society is living on the edge.
