Thanks, we had a really rediculous situation here (in Auckland) a few years
ago where ther entire Central Business District of our largest city was
without power for about 4 months!! the main cables loaded and melted down,
an extra feed & cables had to be brought into the area, there were law
suites and all sorts, I think the power co went broke. Anyways, it was a
disaster for the businesses, generatorts were brought in from Australia and
there were none available in NZ anywhere - they were all in Aucklan
powering the buildings and businesses. A lot of people worked from home
during that outrage.

Best Rgds, Bazz
