Have not heard from Jason in a while. Hope you are ok out there!
But his story did bring a question to my mind.
We joked with Jason about a generator.
I have thought about one for some time, but I am of two minds. (at least

)
Argument one: If I lose power, having a generator could keep my fridge and freezer going, at least in the short term. It would depend on how much gasoline I had squrrelled away.
Argument two: If I lose power, do I want others who did NOT prepare to know I have a generator, gasoline, and that I am using said generator to insure longer shelf life of my cold goods.
I am curious to know what you all think. Do you have generators? Would you use them? OR be wary of using them due to various and sundry mis-begotten souls who might target you BECAUSE you have an operating generator?
