I'm rural, not you. I farm and live in a remote area of Southern Michigan at the end of the power line. We have to have standby power here. When we loose power it may be a week. My nearest neighbor is 3/4 mile away and I'm on a dirt road, 3 miles gtom pavement... We had dial up until last year and in the winter, the only way out is 4 wheel drive, we get 8 foot snow drifts out here...
