Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

One good idea is to buy a generator that uses the same fuel as your car so that it's multipurpose.

Oh yeah I have a 6500W gas generator and a Suburban with a 44-gal fuel tank so rotating through the gas cans is easy. Remember though that many folks in the US live in townhouses or apartments with no garage or detached outbuildings for storage, which would make storing gasoline a problem.

Well, Maria proved me as wrong as I could be. Dominica (a fabulous place) just got trashed, and it looks as though Puerto Rico is going to have a hell of a time. Hope it stays on the current predicted track north and east and misses you guys on the west of the panhandle. I'd be filling those bathtubs and water storage containers just in case though...
