emergency heating of home with hot water tank

Running the shower will cause it to snow in your house.

I once thought that too.

I have yet to find a "deal" on a good generator.

I did that one time during a power cut. Set off the smoke detector. But, it did a nice job of warming the bathroom.

Ditto the Y2K flop. I figured there'd be lots of NIB generators at all the garage sales. There weren't.

All the Y2K buying and early computer upgrades were probably part of the economy run-up and subsequent slow-down.

During the Y2K flap EVERYONE (with no brain cells, which is a lot of people) was buying generators. Yet there seemed to be no super deals on used generators on Jan 2nd.

Political Correctness

A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Builders were in such a hurry to get houses to market that they were "prairie building" in areas that did not have water or power until days before they closed. That required a lot of generators. In the neighborhoods my wife built in you heard the constant hum of generators everywhere.
