    Hi All...

    No hydro-power since 10p EST here due to a storm.

    Main "bbs" laptop ran out of juice. Alternate laptop has about 2hrs juice and Telegram! At least that's one fine way to keep in touch.

    Ciao!

    Why do you call your electricity: hydro-power?

    Bye, Wilfred.

    Bye, Wilfred.

    I think I explained that before? No worries. It's 'cuz in my part of Ontario the vast amount of electricity is produced via hydro-electric methods. The main electric company was called Hydro Canada, now it's HydroOne. Still no power since Sat 10p. :(

    ... And the storm damaged above ground cables? And there is no backup/alternative route for electricity to flow to your location?

    Why do you call your electricity: hydro-power?

    I remember you explaining it before, but that might have been in a private Telegram conversation. And I still think it's confusing for the rest of the world! ;-)

    Bye, Wilfred.
