Y? It's SOUTH of US-30 right? So you rednecks know how to live without electricity for a while and won't go all savage on NIPSCO if they don't have you up and running in a NY minute.
& see y u fail?
Had it been north of US-30, the massives you have been starting riots, taking down more poles, looting, etc. Not good for biz at all.
But since they know you SOUTH of US-30 will take it, they will continue to stick it to you.
Tri-Fuel is WAAAAAAY better than gas.
Think about it this way, gas tanks need to be refilled every 4 to 8 hours on your generator (depends on the model). In the middle of winter, power outage, need that furnace running? It won't make it through the night. Nor will your electric blanket. Have a 2 day power failure and you are running back to the gas station how many times??? Or trying to figure out a safe way to store gasoline long enough to last you for how many hours???
Tri-fuel lets you turn it on and walk away. Shut if off when the power comes back on. No worries. And if there is a natural gas outage, simply revert to gasoline or hook up a propane tanks.
@KLB especially where you live you are better off going the tri-fuel route. Cans I suspect you can plant a big propane tank out in your property where as us 'city folks' have no room for that.

What the #%$@ is wrong with this world. If I had done this my dad would have made sure that I would not be here today.

KLB - Having been without electricity for 8 full days, in the middle of winter, during sub-zero temps for most of that period, and using a gasoline powered generator during that time, I can tell you that it sucks. If you have the ability to use NG or Propane then you really really really want to avoid being stuck with a gasoline generator. The tri-fuel generators are a Godsend to people like us because we can switch fuels very easily as required by our situation.
I was afraid of getting caught chewing gum at school. Not because of what the school would do to me, but because I was raised in the early 1960's when our parents would double whatever amount of 'paddling' the school gave us!
I cannot even imagine where I'd be if I had ever attacked a bus driver, teacher, etc. but I suspect it would be a cold dark cramped space.
& DCFS would have been called your daddy would have been hauled off to jail and you to foster care.
Listen to the words of wisdom! I have not done it for 8 full days more like 1.5 and I can tell you gasoline geny blows! It's great for a quick fix but for longer than 1 day it blows and is a gas HOG!
And back in the 1960's when I was a kid if the DCFS would show up because a daddy gave a proper a** whooping to his idiot son because the son broke a law or even just broke a 'rule' or back-talked to a teacher, then the DCFS would have walked away satisfied that the daddy was "right and just" and the child ultimately would learn his lesson.& DCFS would have been called your daddy would have been hauled off to jail and you to foster care.
8 days with a gas genny total sucked, especially since we were SNOWED IN for the first 3 days . . . and yes that happened right here in NWI (south Lake County).
Now when we have power outages in the winter with the Tri-Fuel genny we consider it a fun day. We pull out the DVDs and hunker in for a "snow day" or for whatever reason we can come up with to take a day off of normal life and enjoy our family time. . . we use the power failures as excuses for my wife to call off work, daughter to call off school, and we just have family days.

Idea ... reduce your electricity dependence or better yet, learn to do without electricity.
I was not aware that DCFS existed back in the 1860s when you were a little boy.
What did DCFS start up?
I'll steal a line from Bill B on this one.
"Does it look like I really want to live off the grid"?
You may give me an ugly girlfriend and make me eat plain rice & beans but don't mess with my internet and the modern invention of "power". I'll go all savage on you just like those north of US-30 "you people" that riot, loot, etc..
Now you SJ folks I will be more than happy to single hand take away all your power, redo all the power poles, lines so you don't have any power if you want and I won't charge NIPSCO one bit for the work.
My feelings for SJ...

Easier to say. But honestly I've been way ahead of that curve despite the fact that I've got a fairly large house. Switched about 95% of our bulbs to compact fluorescent. Now I'm switching some to LED. Energy film on the windows (for at least 15+ years). Lots of insulation. But also a large property with 2 homes, 9 car garage (3 + 6), in ground pool, etc. Yes, I use a lot of energy, but given the property I'm actually very efficient.
Back then it wasn't called the DCFS. It was called the Bad Kids Whoop A** Department.
Notice I said 1860s and you did agree to it. =)
Yes, I did notice you wrote 1860's. I'm old. I'm not senile.
Yes. I have several of each of two different types of recessed flood lights. Both throw off more light than the CFs of the same size, both use only 1/4 of the wattage than the CFs, which is 1/12th the wattage of a standard bulb. Both types throw off a 'warm' light that comfortable to the eyes. Both types are unreasonably expensive. I've also got some LED candelabra bulbs in some ceiling fan lights and again, more light, less energy than the standard incandescents but also much much more expensive.
