>>>Earthquakes are the only reason for power outages, for heavens sake.<<< Try telling that to the people of North Carolina who have no power because of flooding. Have you ever been in an earthquake? There's no way to predict how bad the damage will be or exactly how long it will take to recover. If UMC had no major structural damage and no one was killed, they are lucky, and we shouldn't be complaining because we find it "distressing" that they aren't able to run their equipment for a few days.
