RE: 36hrs. NO power!
I just hit the 36 hrs w/o power mark, and they aren't expecting to have it back up for 2-3 days. [:@]Could be worse...I have a co worker that lives out in a VERY rural area....they are telling him 10-14 days.
BTW....I am posting this from the office, just in case y'all are wondering how I can be on the internet w/o electricity.

Guy I work with had to take a generator to his parents somewhere near Mound City. None could be found locally (sold out) so he had to buyone here in Omaha and take it to them! We managed to miss MOST of the ice. Good luck!

We also got hit with the ice storm creep, too bad about the damage to the car. Hope you get power soon, we lost power also but not as long as you. Take care & stay warm bud.

Man...I wish I could be of some assistance not that I'm forever indebted to you forhooking me up with the turn signal lens.
If it gets too cold, you could always come hang out with me in South Louisiana.
Hope it straighten's out for you soon...
