You're really expecting power interruptions due to the virus (in the US)? Somewhere else (FB) I saw someone snarking that people are dumb because they're buying out frozen food what are they going to do when there's no power for their freezers?! I just don't see that as a likely scenario here but maybe I'm the one who's deluded. I suppose some regions are more vulnerable than others, there was that crazy fire prevention outage in California a few months ago. If we get to the point that there are serious power outages due to a flu I think we'll have much worse problems than our phones are going dead, there won't be any phone network! Or whatever. P.S. I also got the death threat WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! spam but didn't think it was worth a whole new message so, here, I mentioned it in case people are wondering if it's just them. -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | bzs () TheWorld com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: +1 617-STD-WRLD | 800-THE-WRLD The World: Since 1989 | A Public Information Utility | *oo*
