[TheForge] OT -- East Coast correspondents -- how goes H. Irene?

[Saint Phlip]

We just got electric back. There was no reason for us to be out so
long, other than the greed and incompetence of our local electric
company. They think they want 75 million for clean up? Bull. We pay
the second highest electric rates in the entire US. They cheaped out
on the infrastructure that was the excuse for those rates. Be very
glad guys, that none of you are my congesspersons or electric company
executives.

But thanks, guys, for being concerned. We were basically just fine-
the difficulty is the $1000 worth of food we lost in the freezers.
