Love your avatar Peep!
We go from freezing rain to snow and then back again. We must be just on the line between the two.

as much as I like my new snowblower (it's not the one pictured here) I can do without more snow
I'm ready for summer, when I can mow the lawn, shirtless, white as a sheet, scaring the neighborhood kids
this year, I think I'll wear a beer hat too

Did you hear about the 93 year old man that was found dead in his home - frozen?? Evidently he was behind a few months on his electric bill so the electric company put a limiter on his meter. He was found with 4 layers of clothing on and wraped in blankets on the floor. He feet had frostbite and his faucet had icicles on it. He very seldom left his house so probably didn't see the note that was stuck on his front door by the electric company telling him about the limiter. They are not sure how long he was there before being found.
That's just cruel in weather like this! I read that yesterday, such a shame.

It is a shame and I don't mean to sound heartless, but what is the company supposed to do when customers don't pay their bills?

Way, way south.

Honestly, I understand that people need to pay their bills, but gas and electric companies should not be allowed to shut off service during extremely cold times. I know that if someone has had their service turned off previously, that the same thing could happen if they didn't get it turned back on, but in the name of humanity, don't do it when it's so cold. Maybe it would save someone's life.

I agree that something should have been worked out.

In Wisconsin, they cannot be turned off from Mid-November thru mid-April.

They can't be turned off here when the weather is expected to go below freezing within few days. I'm not sure of how many days though.

I can understand the not turning off, but if you have not made good the prior six months on the previous debt, why should they turn it back on?
