re: #511 outsidephilly

No one anywhere, and in the dead of winter, and the hottest part of the summer are when these blackouts usually happen.

We are on the Atlantic coast, and have an emergency pack at the ready, in case. I am a diabetic, on insulin, and that really needs to be kept cold, in the frig. I have a pack to put it in, just in case.

I think that everyone should have an emergency pack, and a battery radio, cell phone charger (they make them..they use a battery), non-perishable foods, and any medication at the ready. Flashlights and lanterns, also.

And if there is a baby involved, or a toddler? A seperate one!
