When your internet connection goes off, owing to power failure, and if it is not coming back within a reasonable time, whom do you curse? The service provider, or the power man or yourself, or God?

I curse neither man nor God. If the power is off and it is not our breakers, I will make sure the electric company is aware of the problem. Then, there is nothing we can do but wait patiently for it to be restored. Should it be off for an extended length of time, we can fire up the portable generator to keep the refrigerator and deep freeze going. We can do that IF we have sufficient gas for the generator. My computer is more likely to go off because the cable is out than for lack of power. The cable was off for about 5 hours one day last month. When that happens, we have no computer, no TV, and no land phone.
