Yeah, when we drove to Cincinnati yesterday afternoon, we were in the midst of a huge caravan of power trucks from South Carolina (not Duke...some other company that was apparently loaning them to Ohio or Indiana power companies). The road conditions weren't very good, which slowed them down considerably.
We've got municipal utilities, not Duke, and apparently were without power/heat for 48 hours. My guess (purely a guess) is that part of the problem is that the grid is not in great shape...but then, I'm generally convinced that our infrastructure is in crummy shape.
