Thanks, Dan.
In some ways this is fun, other than hearing my wife flip out about the internet dropping every 11-18 minutes. She's thrilled when that happens. Ok, that actually makes it even more fun.
Seems like as it approaches midday, the intervals shorten for how long we get power. Was at 18 minutes on...11 minutes off...lather, rinse, repeat. Now, it seems to have dropped to 11 on and 11 off like yesterday afternoon and early eve.
She just heard a show playing from my laptop. Asked me indignantly...You're not trying to watch a show with this, are you? Oh, yeah, I am. She couldn't believe I had the patience for it because she surely doesn't.
While my power was out, I was listening to a vid on YouTube stating that 45% of the US winter wheat crop has been damaged due to the cold weather. Also, there'll be a push toward micro-grids and power rationing in the coming years. I usually laugh at that kind of stuff, but I don't laugh as hard anymore.
