Has anyone heard from Greg recently?

He seems to be missing in action.

He checked in just after Irma left his area. No serious damage to his
place but no power. Was running on a generator.

Yes, that was the last I heard also. There have been some reports on
television of flooding near his area caused by drainage issues. Don't
know if he's impacted or not. His creek/river is basically tidal so
normally drainage would not be an issue. Maybe he doesn't have an
alternative internet connection.

We lost power again about 8PM, huge bang, apparently a feeder cable or
transformer shorting out, and then the neighborhood went dark again.
The diesel gen on the boat is getting a real workout.

Hope he is well and doing well. Without Fretwell, there's little in here
besides right-wing assholes, like...you.

Why did you feel that was necessary Harry?

Harree Putz, how do u do...

If you think I'm right wing you've never met the real thing.

FYI, you once expressed an interest in the longevity and operating
costs of diesel generators on larger boats. We installed our 20KW
Kohler in the fall of 2004, shortly after we bought the boat. So it's
now 13 years old and has about 5800 hours of operating time. That's
roughly comparable to a car with 300,000 miles on it. The generator
has not been maintenance free, but has never required a
tear-down/re-build, mostly little things like sensors and hoses, but
also an exhaust elbow, a couple of new starter motors, and several
raw water pumps. Bottom line is that it's still going strong, starts
right up in a split second, does not smoke, and uses almost no oil -
about as well as you could expect for a hard working piece of
machinery of that age. On average it burns about 1/2 gallon per hour.
I'd estimate maintenance costs at about $1 per hour, maybe a little
less.

It has served us very well in the past week with our hurricane related
power failures, powering the entire house when needed, including the
central air conditioning, electric hot water and electric stove.

Now you did it. Harry's now going to tell us that his propane fueled
Generac that runs for 10 minutes every Saturday is *much* *MUCH* superior.

For his purposes it might very well be. On a boat, not so much.

Sounds like Greg has a lot of cleanup to do. He probably doesn't
have the time to waste harrassing Harry.

Yes, that was the last I heard also. There have been some reports on
television of flooding near his area caused by drainage issues. Don't
know if he's impacted or not. His creek/river is basically tidal so
normally drainage would not be an issue. Maybe he doesn't have an
alternative internet connection.

Half of my neighborhood is still out as of yesterday. Some with
RVs have them backed into their driveways feeding power to their
houses. I imagine they are sleeping in their coaches.
