Living where I do, the power never goes out unless something major
happens, like a transformer going out or a fire at the substation -
and it hasn't happened on my part of the grid. My kids thought they
were doing me a favor by giving me a gas grill after my trusty Weber
died... but my grilling days ended there because I don't like guessing
how much gas is left or changing a tank in the middle of cooking
something.
