From: "Diane Poremsky"
only good for about an hour anymore... so i would need a generator for
an extended outage such as Rick experienced.

I asked this question several years ago, (somewhere, about generators and
computers), and someone from the US Forrest Service, (or a similar Agency),
wrote me off-list saying they had tried that with very poor results...
We did not get into specifics, but my generator pots out such "dirty" power it 
will
not run some _refridgerators_ correctly.
One runs too warm, the other will not kick the compressor over from "overnight 
dead"...
(I tested the line voltage with a digital volt meter and it was 121 VAC.)

Just like you should not put a surge supressor AFTER a UPS,
I would tend to think putting a surge supressor OR UPS after a generator would
*also*  be a "bad idea"...
