Well Jan ... the cost is close to $3,500. I figured it was
cheap insurance. Especially with the darned Asthma and
heart problems I have. It wont be delivered until the 28th.
Actually I can hardly wait!

Wow! Nedra! Probably a very wise decision, look at many died in Europe
during the heat wave. So, if you don't mind me asking, how much does a
generator to run the whole house cost, and any idea how much gas it will
require per hour? ~ jan

Kinda OT - Today I bought an electric start generator at Sears.
I know I know ... many folks don't like to trade there But I have
no money - do have a credit card ,,, so I charged the thing.
Should be paid off in 20 years or so .... LOL! This is the only
way I could be sure to have a generator with the electric start.
The storms take out our electric rather frequently. I will feel
much safer when it is delievered to the store. 8-27-03,,, Oh yeah
it will run the entire house including the central air... Yipppeee
The fish are the main reason I bought it but now I think of how
much I suffer in the hottern Hell weather.... worth every penny.

Back in the Dec. 2002 ice storm, our power was out for about 26 hours,
as
I
recall (I've tried to repress the memory). We had phone service for
about
24 hours, but apparently there's something in BellSouth's local
equipment
that has only a certain "life" without power. What did the phone
company
say?
