What I would complain about is the fact that it's the 21st century and our country is still paralyzed by a ice storm in the winter. I don't know why we can't spend more money on properly burying our electrical cables when there are extremely vulnerable to ice, storms, and other natural occurrences. You don't hear about this thing happening that often in Europe.
I mean it's not like winter storms happen once every 50 years or so. My heart goes out to all those people suffering up there. I sincerely hope those electrical workers are able to get things going as quickly as possible.
