Thank you Brutal. Having a big gennie and having enough fuel to run it two weeks with little to no fuel replenishment is very different. Most of those huge generators that were so politely posted about are intended to run for hours with fuel on hand. Maybe a day. Longer will require fuel trucks to deliver. In the situation described, I doubt Fox news will be selected as a critical function over a hospital when fuel supplies are thin. And don't start with the suggestion that there will be plenty of fuel. All the situations we have experienced to date were localized (think Katrina) and there were bulk supplies in unaffected areas (surplus) that was shipped in. In the description of the show, everyone was affected. There is no cavalry coming, you deal with what you have on hand.
