Oh, it is a safety concern.
I think if they have a predesignated power outage like they're having,
I think that they ought to make sure
that something I think that's battery operated
because when we lose power, I've seen it.
You know, it's a flashing all red for all directions.
So it's a four way stop to be treated as a four way stop.
So with traffic and people not paying attention, it's just too easy
just to not see a red light and go.
It's a cacophony
of generators.
And, you know, the weird thing is in in a park,
if you're going to go to camping,
You have to turn the generator off at 10.
The generator can go on forever here, all the generators.
So it goes on all night.
I don't have a television.
I don't depend on anything that way.
I just enjoy, actually, the silence.
That's what I really enjoyed.
That was one of the benefits of the power going off,
was the silence and the stillness of this area.
